Biologics Triggered The Illness
"Adding to the intrigue, the Austrian doctors who treated
him have asked foreign experts to help determine if his
symptoms may have been caused by toxins found in
biological weapons."
"Yushchenko's doctors in Kiev, the Ukrainian capital,
said they had determined that "chemicals not of a food
origin'' had triggered the illness."
"But the illness, whatever it was, has dramatically changed
his appearance since he first sought treatment at Vienna's
private Rudolfinerhaus clinic on September 10."
"Known for his ruggedly handsome, almost movie star looks,
Yushchenko's complexion is now pockmarked. His face is
haggard, swollen and partially paralyzed. One eye often
tears up."
"At Rudolfinerhaus, Yushchenko underwent a week of
intensive treatment for several illnesses, including acute
pancreatitis, a viral skin disease and nerve paralysis on
the left side of his face, Korpan said."
"Zimpfer and the clinic's chief physician, Dr. Lothar
Wicke -- who requested police protection after receiving
an anonymous threat while treating Yushchenko -- later
asked for outside help from "a specialist in military
operations and biological weapons,'' the Austria Press
Agency reported."
