Following the tragic deaths of the two children in two different spaces and at different times, we would like to clarify the following:

  • The epidemiological surveillance and inspection teams of the Ministry are following up on the cases by taking samples from the bodies, undertaking the different lab examinations of the same to determine the type of disease or bacteria. It was just found that the death was caused by an acute bacteria streptococcus A  that led to the failure of kidneys and cardiac arrest
