This information was reported by journalists of the Ukrainian TV channel “1+1” in a news release, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
More than 700 workers at a meat processing plant in Morlin will receive vaccinations against the infection after five people with measles were found at the plant. Polish media report that all infected workers are Ukrainians.
Let us note that in the voivodeship itself there has been no mention of measles at all for many years, which is why this case is considered an emergency.
In Ukraine, since the beginning of the year, 1 people have already been infected with measles.. Most of them are in the Ivano-Frankivsk region, Bukovina, Transcarpathia and Odessa. In Sumy, Kharkov and Chernigov, not a single case has been detected so far.
Doctors note that there is no cure for measles; only vaccination can save you from infection.
The Ministry of Health of Ukraine stated that it fully covers the need for a free Belgian vaccine.
As a PolitNavigator correspondent previously reported, a measles epidemic broke out in two regions of Ukraine in early January. This fact is carefully hidden, and Ministry of Health fails vaccination.
In turn, yesterday the acting Head of the LPR Leonid Pasechnik announced the Republic’s readiness to provide an opportunity to residents of the Kyiv-controlled territory of the Lugansk region receive a measles vaccination and appropriate treatment for this disease.
