Nizhnekamsk students undergo medical examination
In Nizhnekamsk specialized secondary education institutions, students are being tested for tuberculosis. In order not to distract children from their studies and not to create queues in the TB dispensary, the dispensary provided a fluoromobile. A fluorographic examination has already been conducted for students of the College of Petrochemistry and Oil Refining, Agro-industrial, Medical and Polytechnic Colleges, and students of other colleges will be examined by the end of next week.
In total, it is planned to check about three thousand teenagers.⠀
"Despite the difficult time, we continue to proceed preventive measures, including early detection of tuberculosis," said Rita Medvedeva, Deputy Head of the Health Care Department.
- To date, we have encompassed about 12 thousand schoolchildren with the examination of tuberculin diagnostics - diaskintest and Mantoux reaction. The teenagers are undergoing radiography. Tuberculosis is a very insidious disease, socially dangerous, and, unfortunately, we annually register new cases of infection among both adults and children. Take care of yourself and your children. Undergo the medical examination!".
