Ten-day campaign on prevention of poisoning with mushrooms and berries is held in Tatarstan

14 August 2019, Wednesday

Thematic ten-day campaign "Prevention of poisoning with mushrooms and berries" is held in healthcare institutions from 12 to 21 of August.

Fans of "quiet hunting" begin to collect mushrooms after rainy days. This is also the period of mushroom poisoning. Fly agaric smelly, fly agaric white (spring) and pale toadstool are the most poisonous mushrooms growing in our forests. It is possible to be poisoned not only actually poisonous mushrooms, but also conditionally edible (if they were incorrectly prepared). It is also important to remember that children and the elderly suffer from mushroom poisoning the most difficult.
