I don’t have an iota of information regarding any of above cases – hence going to walk in the dark by clinging on to few words in the report.
“Mysterious” –rather uncommon, “ward” = public place, Srilanka = Warm/hot climate, breathing difficulties = respiratory, one death = fatal, another one critically ill.
A blind guess- possible Legionnaire’ Disease – This is an uncommon form of pneumonia caused by legionella bacterium, that is caused by breathing in small water droplets of contaminated water. (air conditioning systems, piped born water, cooling towers, hospital showers)
There is also a milder version of this, which is called Pontiac Fever.
