Petro Andriushchenko, adviser to the mayor of Mariupol, says there is a widespread cholera outbreak among children in temporarily Russian-occupied Mariupol.

Details: Andriushchenko reported that the Russian “authorities” are attempting to conceal this.
He says headteachers are keeping quiet about the outbreak and the city has not yet declared a state of emergency.
“Mariupol residents under occupation, you are your main line of defence. Please wash your hands. Boil water. Avoid eating unwashed food. Don’t consume unknown liquids. Do not swim in the sea. Nobody will help you but you yourselves,” Andriushchenko said.
He suggested that the rapidly warming weather might be the cause of the widespread outbreaks of the disease.
The mayor’s adviser said messages have recently been circulating in Viber chats and groups on VKontakte (a Russian social network banned in Ukraine) claiming that Ukraine is planning “biological sabotage”.
These posts specifically mentioned Ukraine “infecting” the water with cholera bacillus, warning that “there will be more deaths from this than from Covid-19”.
Background: In January, Mariupol City Council reported an outbreak of viral infections in the occupied city.

These posts specifically mentioned Ukraine “infecting” the water with cholera bacillus, warning that “there will be more deaths from this than from Covid-19”.
Of course this bacillus is a special kind of bacillus, it only works on russian occupied territory. The real reason for the outbreak is provided by good old Wikipedia.
“The risk of a cholera epidemic is highest when poverty, war or natural disasters force people to live in crowded conditions without adequate sanitation.”
I think we can confirm all these conditions exist in Mariupol, and nothing will be done about it, except for the scum to point fingers at everyone, but themselves.
Viktor Belenko, the MiG 25 pilot, got news from the Soviet Union that there was a Cholera outbreak in the USSR. He noted immediately that Cholera is a disease bred in filth, and Soviets simply lied about its accomplishments.
Belenko died in September at the age of 76.
Do any of y’all know the equivalent of “Pound Sand” in Russian. Cyrillic preferably.
Hатри песок … but the meaning is lost in the translation.
Having spoken German, I expected just making a word for word would not convey what we mean by the expression. That’s why I asked for the equivalent.
Cholera is a part of ruskie mir. Just another reason why Ukraine rejects ruskie mir.
