Yushchenko asking UN to hold virus expert examination of Ukraine

Yushchenko emphasized that Ukraine was hit by three at once hard virus infectious agents - two seasonal and Californian flues.  Virologists say, as a result of mutations, this combination of infections may produce an even more aggressive new virus.

"That is why I addressed the United Nations with the request to conduct a virology expert examination of Ukraine, and set up an appropriate laboratory to take efficient anti-epidemic measures," the President emphasized.
