    SEVEN PATIENTS FROM ONE FAMILY

    A1+
    [08:57 pm] 30 October, 2008

    Two of the seventeen patients diagnosed with intestinal infection and
    hospitalized in the contagion department of the Alaverdi hospital were
    transferred out of the hospital today and new patients were transferred
    in. In fact, this was an outburst: seven patients from one family.

    There are currently 24 patients in the contagion department. Besides
    the local doctors, chief expert of the contagious and non-contagious
    epidemic illnesses section of the hygienic epidemiological department
    of the Ministry of Health Liana Torosyan was also there. Torosyan
    has been at the hospital the first day when the hospital received a
    call for the spread of the contagion cases. Liana Torosyan mentioned
    that they conducted bacterial investigations and the cause is still
    not clear. They are currently working on some models so that they
    can continue the investigations in Yerevan.

    The cause for the intestinal infection cases in the Sarahart district
    of Alaverdi is probably the water because on October 22 there was a
    sewer accident, as mentioned by the epidemiologist. Contagion expert
    of the Alaverdi hospital Suren Lalayan said that the situation of
    the patients is not critical. According to him, this is a new illness
    and he hasn't seen anything like this in his 30-year career.

    The heads and experts of the northeast branch of "ArmWaterSewer"
    CJSC paid a visit to Alaverdi to conduct further investigation and
    check-up on the accidents in order to investigate the water samples
    in the company's branch located in Sevan. However, the deputy director
    of the northeastern branch of the "WaterSewer" CJSC claims that there
    haven't been any digressions in the quality of water in his conducted
    investigations to date.
