Ninotsminda regions get ready to combat bird flu.
The fact of the presence of many lakes in the region
is especially dangerous. In all the schools of the
region special courses are held for the pupils.
Special protective clothes and tools have been brought
from Tbilisi, as well as groups of volunteers have
been created to control the lakes. The majority of
them are veterinaries.
According to `A-Info’ agency, the created groups work
round the clock with several shifts. According to the
chief vets of the Akhalqalaq and Ninotsminda regions,
they are ready to withstand bird flu.
