In Moscow, the amount of thallium in the urine of a hospitalized lieutenant colonel of the Ministry of Internal Affairs exceeds the norm by almost a thousand times, and the dose of toxic metal in the officer's hair is 957 μg / kg, which exceeds the maximum permissible level by 50 times. The Telegram channel Baza writes about this.
The officer was admitted to the hospital on November 19, but then the doctors did not consider the version of the poisoning. Doctors diagnosed polyneuropathy (a disorder associated with damage to the nervous system). However, the patient's condition deteriorated rapidly: he stopped answering his wife's calls and did not recognize his family, he also began to have memory problems and his hair began to fall out.
The wife, who came to visit her husband in the hospital, was the first to think about the poisoning. She secretly cut off part of her husband's hair and sent it to be examined. The laboratory confirmed the woman's guesses: it turned out that the amount of toxic metal in her husband's body was many times higher than the norm. Upon learning of this, the doctors transferred the man to the Sklifosovsky Institute, where he is now in serious condition.
According to the newspaper, the lieutenant colonel resigned from the Ministry of Internal Affairs several years ago. Before his dismissal, he worked as a deputy commander of a traffic police battalion in Dmitrov, near Moscow. After that, he went about his business.
