The tragedy occurred on Sunday, March 8. According to a colleague, the deceased girl had recently gotten married and was 26 years old. The couple was expecting a girl — it was their first child.
A month ago, the girl went on maternity leave due to pregnancy.
'Anaphylactic shock, everything happened very quickly. The term was about 34 weeks. [...] We found out from her mother, who came into our office this morning in hysterics to find out what documents needed to be collected,' a colleague wrote in the post.

Onliner contacted Alena Padalyanchyk, the chief doctor of Dzyarzhynsk Central District Hospital. She confirmed the death of the mother and infant:
'For now, I'll just say: the medics did everything they could. I say this with all responsibility: everything they could.'
There is no official information yet about the causes of what happened.
