 ‘More than a hundred schoolgirls were taken to the emergency department’

In an interview with NuJINHA, a hospital worker said, “It seems as if the female students were transferred from the battlefield to the hospital. More than a hundred female students were taken to the emergency department. There were a lot of patients and their parents were very worried about their daughters.”

A student is in critical condition

Underling that many students were discharged from the hospital in one or two hours, the hospital worker said, “Many students are still kept in hospital because their health condition is very serious. Some are kept in the intensive care unit while one of them was transferred to a hospital in Urmia when her condition deteriorated.”

 Speaking about a 16-year-old student, she said, “A student named Nyan Karimi had an epileptic attack a few hours after she was discharged from the hospital due to poisoning. She was returned to the hospital and is now kept in the intensive care unit due to her critical condition.”

They have difficulties in breathing

 A nurse working at a health clinic in the city of Bukan said, “Many of the students were not transferred to the hospital immediately because they did not suffer from severe symptoms. But after a few hours, some of them were taken to health clinics after suffering from symptoms. We transferred them to a hospital’s emergency department.”

She pointed out that schoolgirls later suffered from symptoms including nausea, fainting, headaches, coughing, breathing difficulties and heart palpitations. Most of the students, who were poisoned at schools, have difficulties in breathing."

 

According to the local sources, the regime forces have warned the healthcare workers and school administrators to keep silent about the chemical attack and the poisonings.
