From: MSN NicknameEagle_wng (Original Message) Sent: 3/10/2006 12:56 PM New cases of pseudo-asthmatic syndrome registered in Chechnya CHECHNYA, 10 March, Caucasus Times. New cases of pseudo-asthmatic syndrome have been registered among schoolchildren in Chechnya's Shelkovskiy District
To prevent the disease, the deputy director of [Moscow's] Serbskiy Institute of Forensic Psychiatry, Zurab Kikelidze, has addressed central TV channels, requesting not to broadcast TV reports showing ill people from Shelkovskiy District, a spokesperson for the republican children's hospital in Chechnya has told a Caucasus Times correspondent.
Doctors linked the following outbreak of a mysterious disease among schoolchildren and teachers in Chechnya directly to the reports on the ill children from Shelkovskiy District broadcast by individual TV channels.
"In our opinion, this has caused the new diseases," the chief doctor of the republican children's hospital, Sultan Alimkhadzhiyev, said.
Six new cases of illness among children and teachers were registered in Shelkovskiy District in the past period.
Sultan Alimkhadzhiyev said that these people had no signs of such illness earlier.
People, especially children, contracted an unfamiliar disease in Chechnya's Shelkovskiy District on a mass scale in mid December 2005. According to doctors, the cause of the infection was long-term severe psychological stress.
Meanwhile, local residents believe that symptoms of the illness among children in Chechnya are similar to those of poisoning. Bulat Tamaev, Grozny, Caucasus Times http://www.caucasustimes.com/article.asp?id=7934
