Mum-to-be terminates pregnancy after contracting horror virus found in Europe that made baby’s head abnormally small

A MUM-to-be was forced to terminate her pregnancy at 26 weeks after catching a virus spotted Europe, which caused her baby’s head to be abnormally small.

Though the woman only suffered mild symptoms from the illness, the virus infected her little one through the womb and caused “severe microcephaly”.
