Young footballers from Kazakhstan, hospitalized in Tashkent with signs of poisoning, have been discharged and sent home.
The athletes arrived from Karaganda in late October to participate in a football tournament. According to the Ministry of Health, the condition of all children has improved, allowing them to complete treatment in the hospital.
The first requests for medical assistance were received on November 1. After breakfast at one of the capital's hotels, 13 people complained of vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and fever. Another seven patients with similar symptoms were hospitalized on November 2–3.
In total, 20 members of the delegation—children and adults—required medical assistance. The preliminary diagnosis was identified as "acute diarrhea." Earlier, it was reported that six children and four adults remained under treatment.
The prosecutor's office of the Chilanzar district has initiated a criminal case on the fact of violating sanitary legislation or epidemic control rules.
