 * Symbol possible vote.svg - Length and date check, QPQ is pending, Image is PD-Old. For the cite, while this being the first fatal outbreak is mentioned in the lead I do not see a cite for it in the article.  Also, there is a clarification needed tag for an unclear sentence and Earwigs flags some close paraphrasing.   Mifter (talk) 00:44, 21 November 2018 (UTC)
 * All done I think. I changed fatal to recorded in the hook as there may well have been earlier unrecognised cases in the U.K. Philafrenzy (talk) 08:44, 21 November 2018 (UTC)
