\nLast week, through the mailboxes of Volyn residents, an appeal to supporters of "Our Ukraine" was distributed, in which "doctors of Volyn" warn to be cautious when communicating with the candidate for the post of President of Ukraine V. Yushchenko, since "Mr. Yushchenko is seriously ill. His illness is easily transmitted through contact, it is syphilis, as evidenced by Mr. Yushchenko's face" – the leaflet states. Under the text of the so-called information letter there is a signature – "Trade Union of Medical Workers". \n \nToday, the head of the regional organization of the trade union of healthcare workers, Vitaliy Shakhrayuk, issued a Statement to the mass media, in which he distances himself from this information product and its distribution. "The regional organization of the trade union of healthcare workers has nothing to do with this leaflet. It did not prepare, sign, or distribute it." \n
