YEREVAN, NOVEMBER 4, NOYAN TAPAN. Unlike its neighboring countries
no cases of H1N1 infection (swine flu) have been recorded in Armenia
so far. RA Minister of Health Haroutiun Kushkian informed journalists
about it on November 4 at the National Assembly.
He said that the Ministry undertakes proper anti-epidemiological
measures. In particular, groups of specialized doctors exercise
24-hour control at all border check-points. At Zvartnots airport
special attention is paid to health condition of passengers who arrive
from countries recording cases of the disease.
Meanwhile the Minister reported that there is no vaccination against
that infection in Armenia so far as Russia, Europe, and U.S. have
just started to produce the vaccination and "there are contradictory
data on vaccination's efficiency." According to H. Kushkian, if we
have data on vaccination's efficiency, as well as security, Armenia
will also purchase it.
