The clinic's chief doctor Roman Ostiak thanked Yulia Tymoshenko's Cabinet of Ministers for its assistance and support during the outbreak of the flu epidemic in Ukraine.

The government quickly supplied necessary volumes of medicine to hospitals in the quarantine zone, Roman Ostiak reported. He personally thanked the Prime Minister for her troubles and attention.

According to Roman Ostiak, hospitals have all the necessary medicine for the month ahead and are admitting all patients.
