This has been the first HFMD death report in Shanghai since January 1 this year, it said, adding that 3,172 HFMD cases have been reported this year. Only 25 people have been hospitalized, while the others suffered minor illness.

There has been no disease outbreak in the city, the bureau said.

Hand-foot-mouth disease is a common childhood illness that mainly affects children under the age of 10. Symptoms include fever, sores in the mouth and a rash with blisters. It can sometimes be fatal if complications occur.
