Yushchenko Poisoned? Support Apolyton, buy Civilization 2

http://edition.cnn.com/2004/WORLD/e...t.ap/index.html

Mystery surrounds Yushchenko ailment

VIENNA, Austria (AP) -- What ails Viktor Yushchenko?

As Ukraine's popular pro-Western opposition leader claimed victory Tuesday in hotly contested presidential elections, the mystery surrounding an appearance-altering illness that twice prompted him to check into a Vienna hospital persisted.

Yushchenko accused the Ukrainian authorities of poisoning him. His detractors suggested he'd eaten some bad sushi.

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.

Medical experts said they may never know for sure what befell Yushchenko.

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.

Doctors at Rudolfinerhaus declined to comment Tuesday. By the time Yushchenko checked out of the clinic last month after returning for follow-up treatment, physicians said they could neither prove nor rule out that he had been poisoned.

Dr. Nikolai Korpan, who oversaw Yushchenko's treatment in Vienna, said the cause of his illness remained "totally open.''

Doctors were unable to confirm suspicions of poisoning because Yushchenko first checked into the clinic four days after the symptoms appeared -- too late for tests to show if poisoning had occurred, Korpan said.

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.

Clinic director Michael Zimpfer said doctors were unable to explain some of Yushchenko's symptoms, particularly his strong backaches.

He said they could not rule out stress or a viral infection.

Yushchenko's doctors in Kiev, the Ukrainian capital, said they had determined that "chemicals not of a food origin'' had triggered the illness.

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.

Yushchenko's medical files since have been sealed and turned over to Austrian prosecutors, local media reported.

Authorities have not said whether they planned to investigate further or merely turn over their findings to Ukraine.

Earlier this month, Volodymyr Syvkovych, the head of a 15-member Ukrainian parliamentary commission that investigated the mysterious illness, said a forensic medical examination found no traces of "any biological weapons'' in Yushchenko's blood, nails, hair or urine.



Woah! Someone hit every branch of the ugly tree recently!

You'll be surpised, but both Rybkin who disappered in Ukraine and Yushenko are sponsored by Boris Berezovsky.

aww man that's nasty.. I hate those comparison pics in this one. Look at his skin, it looks dead and boily and just nasty. Remember, this is after he's been treated too! Uh oh..

The nose is just nasty. What about his eyes? In the NOW picture the eyes are also older looking.. Uh that's really bad. That's just too nasty. How could someone have the guts to do this to him, and then release him into the wild, letting everyone know someone has done this to him? Nasty.. that's all I have to say.. nasty.

My leadership, as well as US leadership or Israeli leadership has professionals for that kind of work. Professionals use lethal poisons that give 100% guaranted kill, simple as that (besides it is easier to make a car accident or to shot the target, then the poison him).

Serb ignores the fact that whomever might do such a thing probably wouldn't want to kill him. Martyrdom is a double-edged sword. Were Yuschenko to die, whether it appeared accidental or no, the result would be utter disaster for the current Ukraine regime. Given the tumult that's occured over a mere election, an actual assassination would have sparked a full-fledged revolution.

But take a guy famous for being a "pretty boy" and turn him into a hideous freak, then you rob him of some of his power over people.
