In the city of Zhirnovsk, Volgograd Region, 16 persons, including a child of nine, have been hospitalized with food poisoning.

A representative of the territorial department of "Rospotrebnadzor" (Russian Agency for Supervising Consumer Goods) has informed today that "by initial symptoms salmonellosis can be suspected."

Earlier, the "Caucasian Knot" has informed about hospitalization in the Volgograd Region of 14 children, aged from 7 to 14, from a summer camp with suspicion for gastroenterocolitis. According to some sources, unripe apricots could be the source of poisoning.

The mass inspection of children's camps was initiated after an incident in the camp "Lazurny", where 16 children were hospitalized because of indigestion.
