Mauritanian President Mohamed O. Cheikh Ghazouani ordered Minister of Health Nazirou O. Hamed to visit the locality of Ajouer Tenhemoud in order to shed light on the disease that has erupted in this locality, under the moughata from R'Kiz.

The minister will go tonight, a few days after the passage of a medical mission of the ministry that took samples of 32 people among whom 28 were carriers of the disease.

Samples were sent to laboratories to further analyze and confirm the diagnosis.

According to the first data obtained by the mission, this disease, which has spread in the locality, particularly among women, is not serious, non-fatal or contagious.

Other medical sources argue that the disease can be life threatening for people with diseases such as kidney failure or cardiovascular disease.

The inhabitants of this locality had noticed for some months abnormal inflations on people, which led the authorities to dispatch a first team of two doctors and a laboratory assistant, followed then by a more extensive medical mission.

In addition, another mission of the Ministry of Hydraulics and Sanitation went to the locality to analyze the water consumed by the inhabitants and the rate of salinity.

The emergency bulletin issued by the Mauritanian authorities had announced that it was an impure nephrotic syndrome.
