 34 children of "Yelochka" kindergarten, where two children had died from an infectious disease, were released from Abakan Infectious Hospital on June 10, the Khakass Department of the federal regulatory healthcare and civil rights protection inspectorate Rospotrebnadzor reported. 34 children have been released from Abakan Infectious Hospital for three days. The state of ten children remaining in hospital is out of danger.
Primary care physicians keep watching the children at home. No new cases of the disease have been registered.
As Newslab reported earlier, two children from Abakan kindergarten "Yelochka" died on May 31 and June 3. Both the death cases in one and the same kindergarten were not interconnected. The cause of the death of a 2-year-old girl was a generalized form of meningococcus, while the other child died of purulent encephalomeningitis, supposedly caused by Haemophilus influenzae. Nearly 40 children from "Yelochka" kindergarten were taken to hospital. It had been reported before that the children had had enterovirus.
A criminal case was opened on "Neglect" against Yulia Shmidt, the kindergarten director, who faces up to five years' imprisonment.
