Kazakhstan Ministry of Health denied information about unknown pneumonia

Some Chinese media reported that pneumonia, even more dangerous than COVID-19, had been detected in Kazakhstan. The Ministry of Health, in turn, called this information untrue.

The World Health Organization has introduced codes in ICD-10 to capture pneumonias that have not been laboratory confirmed but are clinically or epidemiologically established. To effectively counteract the coronavirus, Kazakhstan maintains statistics of such cases.

Speaking to the media on July 9, the head of the Ministry of Health of Kazakhstan A.Tsoy reported on the total number of cases of pneumonia of different origin, including unspecified etiology according to ICD-10. Therefore, the statements of the Chinese media distort the real situation.
