Akfa Medline is ready to provide free surgery for kids with CDH in Tashkent




 

The message is being circulated in various groups on the Telegram messenger platform offering a free medical service saying: "Hello, members of the group. In Akfa Medline in Tashkent, children under the age of 15 who were born with congenital heart disease will be given a free operation for the month of Ruza from April 2 to May 2. Please contact 1141. If possible, distribute this news."

Factchecker.uz contacted the Akfa Medline clinic in Tashkent at the number indicated in the message. An employee of the medical centre said that this event took place in 2022 and there was no such free service at the moment.

You may also notice the first days of the message which are April 2 to May 2. It was the month of Ramadan in 2022. The holy month begins on March 10 this year which should make everyone suspicious about the information circulating online.

 

Factchecker.uz verdict: False
