Galway creche closes temporarily after E.coli outbreak

The HSE said the children were diagnosed with Verotoxigenic Escherichia coli (VTEC), last week at the creche, which has been identified as Dun Beag Creche, in Dunmore.
That is a serious form of gastroenteritis that can cause diarrhoea which may be bloody, vomiting, nausea, and high temperature. The majority of cases get better with no treatment and without hospitalisation.
