 04.10.2005  
NIZHNY NOVGOROD, October 4 (Itar-Tass) – Sixty people, including 12 children, have been hospitalised with suspect symptoms of viral hepatitis A in Nizhny Novgorod over the past 24 hours.  
Seventy-six people earlier diagnosed with hepatitis have been discharged from hospitals after treatment, a member of the operational centre monitoring the hepatitis outbreak told Itar-Tass on Tuesday.  
Epidemiologists describe the situation with hepatitis A in Nizhny Novgorod as stable.

  
All people who contracted the infectious liver disease were admitted to hospitals with mild or moderate-to-severe forms of it.  
A total of 1,466 hepatitis cases have been registered in since September 5.  
An average course of treatment is 14 days.  
Rigid preventive measures are pursued in the city.  
Disinfection is continuing at the city’s Sormovo pumping station from which the drinking water is supplied.  
Checks are carried out at industrial enterprises and catering services.  
Epidemiologists close trading sites where violations of sanitary norms are found out.  
Preventive vaccination of 64,400 residents of Nizhny Novgorod has been conducted and immunoglobulin injections to 8,900 people made in effort to localise the hepatitis A outbreak.
