A pediatrician, an infectious disease specialist, and even after retirement the life of Dina Mirgasimovna is connected with medicine.
She remembers her first work-place in a small village Karazhal of Karaganda region, where the local population mined black ore. Young pediatrician had to deal with a variety of childhood diseases: from the common cold to measles, rubella, scarlet fever and mumps in difficult post-war time. Many diseases, tamed today by vaccination, could lead to a fatal outcome at that time.
