The Health Minister Ould Jelvoune conducted Tuesday, May 28 in the evening a visit to the Aleg hospital and learned that patients with a disease of unknown origin that he had seen a few days earlier, were all dead finally.

Ould Jelvoune was accompanied by a number of advisors including Dr. Ba. This n 'could not help but blame the director of the hospital Aleg a certain nonchalance. This did not please the director.

Critical members of the ministerial delegation are supported by relatives of patients who are going to ask the minister to bring with him the entire medical staff of the hospital Aleg. Others, against seemingly less angry, asked the Minister to send the missing equipment to the medical center. The minister promised to meet their demands.
