Young man kills himself in girlfriend's apartment

A 29-year-old man committed suicide in the apartment of his girlfriend in Chisinau's Botanica district on August 16. Anatol Proca, coordinating doctor at the Chisinau Ambulance Service, has told Info-Prim Neo that the man, who came to Chisinau from Cantemir district, was found hanged by his girlfriend. She called an ambulance and the police, but the man could not be saved. An investigation is under way. A 19-year-old ice-cream seller experienced sunstroke symptoms after the working program and called an ambulance. She told the ambulance doctors that she sold ice-cream all day long with her head uncovered. Three inhabitants of Graseni village, Ungheni, were admitted to the Chisinau-based infectious diseases hospital “Toma Ciorba”. The men worked on a building site on the beach in Vadul lui Voda town. In the morning, they ate homemade whey cheese and got infected. A 13-year-old boy was rushed to the Mother and Child Center from Trandafirilor St in a precoma. He got poisoned with an unidentified substance. The two doctors on guard in the admission section forced the ambulance doctor to perform a gastric lavage, talking arrogantly to him. “It is not for the first time that the doctors behave arrogantly and treat the ambulance doctors disrespectfully,” Anatol Proca said. The attempts of Info-Prim Neo's reporter to talk to the two doctors failed. Yesterday and last night, the Chisinau ambulance teams responded to 856 calls, dealing with 84 cases of acute viral inflection, eight strokes and 21 deliveries. Forty-five calls were made from the street
