    YEREVAN. - Total of 11 cases of botulism were registered during the
    11 months of this year with 17 poisoned people out of which two ended
    fatally, Sanitary-Epidemiological Service at the Armenian Healthcare
    Ministry informed Armenian News-NEWS.am.

    Two of the poisoned persons were children. The poisoning cases were
