A total of three people have died after contracting a Victorian-era disease in the UK, which is spread by coughing and sneezing.
Diptheria was identified in 87 people in the UK last year, up from just 10 cases in 2021, reports the Mirror.
It has been reported that 72 cases of the Corynebacterium diphtheriae strain were found among asylum seekers that had travelled to the country.
