 11:49, 7 August 2023

YEREVAN, AUGUST 7, ARMENPRESS. 14 new cases of measles were confirmed last week, bringing the total number of confirmed cases in the ongoing local outbreak in Armenia to 373, the National Center for Disease Control and Prevention reported Monday.

As of August 7, the number of active cases stood at 147 but only 4 patients were hospitalized.

226 patients have been treated and discharged from hospitals.

260 of those infected are children, while the 113 others are adults.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
