Health authorities are trying to find four children who may have been exposed to a potentially deadly bat-borne virus at Ipswich, west of Brisbane. The children were seen playing with a flying fox at Queens Park last Saturday. Bats in the area have tested positive for Australian bat lyssa virus which can be transmitted to humans.
