The children who were poisoned in Perm at the competition came from three cities in Russia

All the children poisoned in Perm came from Barnaul, Ulyanovsk and Novokuznetsk. They were hospitalized at the regional children’s hospital.

“15 children were hospitalized. They came to Perm from Barnaul, Novokuznetsk and Ulyanovsk. “Everyone is in a stable condition and is receiving the necessary help,” says Svetlana Denisova, Commissioner for Children’s Rights in the Perm Territory, on the website. The Children’s Ombudsman took operational control of the situation.

The remaining participants of the All-Russian festival-competition of children’s amateur circus groups are in the hotel. Doctors are also monitoring their condition. The gala concert that concluded the competition was supposed to take place on the evening of October 26, but was canceled due to mass illness of participants. Investigators are now looking into the causes of the poisoning and have opened a criminal case.
