In an unexpected and shocking turn of events, around 345 people in Andhra Pradesh have been hospitalized with a mystery illness exhibiting symptoms such as seizures, nausea, loss of consciousness.

While the cause of the illness hasn't been identified yet, it has already caused one death, a 45 year old man who passed away on Sunday, as the state is already facing a tough time dealing with the Coronavirus pandemic.

This mystery illness outbreak began in the town of Eluru. The cause of the illness hasn't been found so far and the local authorities said that all patients have tested negative for Coronavirus. Andhra Pradesh CM YS Jaganmohan Reddy visited the patients on yesterday even as opposition parties accused that the illness might have been due to contaminated water supply. However, the government has said that water samples from the affected areas aren't contaminated.
