Food poisoning came probably from a Turkish restaurant

Severe food poisoning cases were reported from Hamad hospital -  20 people became seriously ill  - all had barbecue chicken on Saturday evening at a Turkish restaurant somewhere  near Al-Ahli hospital .The police sealed off the place and investigations are  going on .
The victims had very bad stomach ache and were vomiting some hours after having their dinner .Children and women -whole families became sick .A pregnant woman gave birth too early due to the abdominal pain of the poisoning . The baby is at the Intensive Care Unit now .

The local authorities are usually very strict with restaurants breaching the law  and they close them for minor offences for months . The problem is the  great fluctuation of the employees  - they come to this country  then  go - then new ones come etc .This way it is extremely difficult to find reliable workforce in every field .

Personally , I will stay away from restaurants for a while . Right on the day of our arrival in this country we got  terrible food poisoning -most probably in Egypt we had some salad with cheese the day before .Then for a half year we did not dare any restaurants in Doha . Once bitten twice shy !

________________________________
 Today's paper named the restaurant which was closed due to the food poisoning " Marmara Istanbul " They must be closed for 60 days . Authorities plan to launch inspection campaign on food outlets ,beauty  salons  etc.

It is all fun  - but please why ladies only can not have fun during Eid celebrations ?One single day is too much to ask for those women whose tradition /culture /pudency does not allow them to mix with men while wearing swimming suits ?

Why ladies only days are only on week days /school days etc ...
