Influenza death: Cause of young woman's death determined

A cause of a 22-year-old woman's death in Zugdidi has been pinpointed after a forensic examination, with the influenza B virus being the cause of death.

Information that the 22-year-old died of coronavirus does not correspond to the truth, says Amiran Gamkrelidze, the Head of the National Centre for Disease Control. "The taken sample was sent to Lugar Laboratory, and the influenza B virus proved to be the cause of her death. It has been the third case of a patient dying of the virus this season," Gamkrelidze declared.

The young woman was taken to Zugdidi Referral Hospital on January 19 and transported to Kutaisi later. The patient died on January 22, when she was transported to Tbilisi.
