A man aged 25 who suffered burns on 40% of the body was taken to Chisinau by a helicopter from the Ocnița District Hospital. This is the first air-medical operation performed by SMURD Romania for Moldovan citizens so far this year, IPN reports.
According to the General Inspectorate for Emergency Situations, during the flight the passenger’s condition was stable and no complications were witnessed. The helicopter landed at the Dinamo Stadium in Chisinau from where the patient was taken to the Burns Center by the Aviasan National Service.
The young man suffered burns when he lit a cigarette in a room where there was gasoline.
