The Health Ministry will this afternoon release the result of the investigation carried out in relation to the death of a baby boy at the Nausori Health Centre one week ago.
Minister for Health Jone Usamate says the investigation is expected to be completed this afternoon.
A couple had taken their 9‑month‑old baby to the CWM Hospital on Saturday 23rd April as the child had difficulties breathing.
The father of the baby, Alvin Chandra Krishan says when they arrived at the hospital, they were attended to by a nurse who put their baby on nebulizer.
Krishan says that after a few minutes, their baby's condition worsened.
He says they complained to the nurse and were only informed that the doctor is attending to another patient.
He also claims that after half an hour, they were informed that there were no doctors available.
Krishan says they could not afford to take their baby to a private doctor.
They rushed their child to the Nausori Health Center but it was too late as their baby passed away.
