The Evening standard reports that same family are now being harassed on social media by trolls claiming the virus is a hoax and questioning the family's diet and lifestyle.

It does, Mamya. Depressingly, it didn't surprise me when i read it. Some people just cannot resist inflicting pain on others.

I saw them on TV last night and I was embarrassed for them. Why they agreed to the interview I don't know because they just couldn't keep it together. Especially for poor father at the end when the reporter asked him how he felt! Have a guess mate. I suppose they did it as a means of warning others but at what cost to themselves? There are some truly nasty people about who think it's OK to torment them. Jeez!
