The information circulating about a person named Elnara Hajiyeva studying at Anadolu University’s Baku branch allegedly contracting the disease of foot-and-mouth disease is not true, the Ministry of Health told APA.
It was stated that no cases of foot-and-mouth disease have been recorded among people in Azerbaijan over the past 30 years: “Currently, no cases of infection with this disease among people have been detected in the country. We urge citizens to trust only information confirmed by official sources. At the same time, we ask media representatives to publish only official and verified information in order not to create unjustified public concern.”
