Americans are being warned about a potentially deadly virus surging across the country and is only expected to worsen as the US experiences some of its hottest summer weather.

The FDA gave no further details on the individual, but said the fatality was 'potentially associated' with the Diamond Shruumz chocolate bars, cones and gummies currently sickening Americans. At least 48 people have fallen ill after eating the products since the alarm was raised early last month, while 27 have been hospitalized suffering from seizures, loss of consciousness and an abnormal heart rate.
The patient, who was not named, only had symptoms in their eye - such as reddening or swelling - and has since recovered from the infection.

Young patients with debilitating Parkinson's disease have revealed their surprising symptoms of the world's fastest growing neurological condition. Parkinson's disease, a degenerative neurological condition, has long been thought of as an 'old person's' disease, as it's typically diagnosed in patients over the age of 60.
