KIEV, May 18 (RIA Novosti) - A total of 92 people, including 87 children,

were hospitalized in eastern Ukraine as of early Sunday after measles

vaccination, Ukraine's emergencies ministry said.

On May 13, a 17-year-old boy died after measles inoculation in the Donetsk

Region. Two days later, over 60 people in eastern Ukraine were hospitalized

after vaccination. A total of over 20,000 people in the region received the

same vaccine.

Ukraine's President Viktor Yushchenko said he was concerned over the

teenager's death and demanded from the Ukrainian health ministry to take all

measures to prevent such instances in the future.

By now, measles immunization has been halted in Ukraine.
