Health Minister Patriciu Achimas-Cadariu told Digi 24 private television broadcaster on Thursday evening that he and Prime Minister Dacian Ciolos will go to the Pediatric Hospital of Pitesti this Friday to take an overall picture of the situation.
He brushed off the idea of a travel alert being issued for Arges County, because no new cases have emerged.
Asked what could be the causes for the children getting sick, he said he found out from people in Arges County that a great amount of natural fertilizer is used there, thus the development of some germs being possible.
Asked about the Premier possibly dismissing him, the Health Minister said that he is currently concentrating on ways to help the ill children, and that everything else is secondary. AGERPRES
