Berlin authorities are calling on patrons of a nightclub in the German capital to immediately visit a doctor and get checked for bacterial meningitis after they may have been exposed to the contagious disease there.
Authorities say one visitor to the KitKatClub who is currently suffering from the life-threatening illness likely contracted the disease there on Saturday.

Local Berlin media reported Thursday that the infected customer had fallen severely ill.
