Northern Ireland's Public Health Agency (PHA) has reported that there are now 124 confirmed cases of E.coli O157 in the country's worst ever outbreak. It is examining another 166 probable cases, linked to Flicks restaurant in Belfast's Cityside shopping complex. The increase in confirmed cases in recent days is not unexpected and is the result of probable cases becoming confirmed following testing. The number of probable cases is levelling off as fewer new reports are coming forward.
