Seliger participants were taken to the hospital

About a hundred participants in the Seliger-2014 youth forum were in a hospital with food poisoning, Interfax reports on Monday with reference to one of the forum participants. “A lot of people were poisoned, about a hundred were sent to the hospital,” his source quotes the news agency. He also said that the victims, who are not so bad, remained in the camp.

Another source, a participant in the forum from the Ryazan delegation, told the Rzn.info portal that people felt badly on Sunday after dinner. He added that Sunday was the first day of the shift, and everyone already wanted to go home.

According to the head of the Bashkir delegation, a centralized kitchen is responsible for cooking on the forum, from where the food will be carried by the participants in the camps. According to one of the preliminary versions, young people were poisoned by technical water.

According to the latest data obtained from the sanitary service, the cause of mass poisoning was violations in the work of the food unit. “According to the first results of the audit, gross violations of the sanitary and epidemiological regime on the catering unit were identified. Measures have been taken to organize safe nutrition, ”Interfax quotes the representative of Rospotrebnadzor. It is reported that in total 142 participants in the camp were poisoned, of which only 34 were hospitalized. Three victims are in a state of moderate severity, the rest have a slight form of poisoning. The Rospotrebnadzor said that until the question of suspension of the functioning of the forum is not raised.

One of the victims, the forum participant in the disposition of “Innovation” by Yana Starovoitov, wrote on her VKontakte page: “On the first day of arrival, about 300 people were poisoned. And me too. Some were loaded into the duty car unconscious. Such things. " To this record, the girl added a photograph of her hand, in which the needle with a pipe is inserted, similar to a dropper. A friend of Yana Elizaveta Putintseva suggests that “yesterday's pasta with spoiled meat gave the guys to eat,” she asks Yana Starovoitov to support a warm word and believes that “it is better not to go.” Elizabeth adds to his entry: "Pay 2,200 orgvnation for food, for a sour."

Another forum participant Irina Cherdakova believes that the matter is not as food, but in non -discipline: “The food is normal, I think some simply do not observe personal hygiene. Some know the water water drank. And the food is standing in the heat, we were told within 40 minutes to eat, and not after 3 hours. Maybe we were poisoned until lunch, they got to the forum, ”she wrote in the general group dedicated to this forum. “I drank technical water and ate everything there - wash the plates and forks is fine, and everything will be fine,” the participant signed as Anton Alf shared his opinion.

“I have no words! Dear organizers, from the very beginning, the 2014 Forum organization raised great doubts! Well, it's just tin! Try to pay attention to what and what you feed people! All the sick guys are a speedy recovery! ”, Alina Lebedeva writes .

In social networks, this incident is actively commented and discussed. “At the rally of Putinit,“ Seliger ”received more than 100 people. Just tell that Russia got up from the knees, and then the products are expired! ”, They wrote in the group“ Russian Regions ”. Negative and even malevolent comments on this topic are already a familiar phenomenon: “Definitely the machinations of enemies. After all, in war as in war - all means are good. The cooks are already reporting to Langley, ”writes Vasily Polyukhovich. “Such things, guys. It remains to find out alcohol or food poisoning. For the first youth forum of the state, everything is shameful, I just wonder, ” said Svyatopolk Mirsky.
