Africa-Press – Rwanda. <\/strong><\/span>Thirty six people who sustained injuries when a maize drying shelter collapsed in Rusororo Sector, Gasabo District, on February 3, have been discharged after receiving treatment, Masaka District Hospital officials have said.<\/p>\n

The incident, which occurred around 8:30 am, on Friday, according to maize farmers, caused the death of 11 people.<\/p>\n

Speaking to The New Times on Saturday, February 4, Damascene Hanyurwimfura, the Director General of Masaka Hospital, said that the hospital received 45 injured people and transferred nine to other hospitals for further treatment.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere were seven who were critically ill and we transferred them to Kanombe [Rwanda Military Hospital] because they had sustained fractures such as that of thigh bone.\u201d<\/p>\n

The remaining two were sent to the University Teaching Hospital of Kigali (CHUK) as they were suffering from back pain and needed a CT scan to properly examine their injuries so they could get proper treatment.<\/p>\n

Of the 36 patients who were getting treatment at the Masaka hospital, he said, only four spent a night there. The others were discharged on Friday, the same day they were admitted.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe four patients stayed in the hospital for one night because they were in pain. But their medical condition improved and we have discharged them,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
