The claim that a second-grade girl in Kocaeli died from meningitis has caused concern among parents. Following the incident, many parents did not send their children to school.
A student in the 2nd grade, 8-year-old İrem Aslan, who studies at Bekir Sıtkı Özer Primary School located in Derince, Kocaeli, fell ill and was taken to the hospital. Despite all the interventions at the hospital, the little girl lost her life. İrem Aslan's funeral will be held today after the afternoon prayer at Sopalı Mosque, followed by her burial.
PARENTS DID NOT SEND THEIR CHILDREN TO SCHOOL
On the other hand, it was claimed that little İrem had contracted meningitis. With the rapid spread of these claims, some parents did not send their children to school as a precaution. While the desks in the classroom remained empty, the silence in the schoolyard was also noteworthy.
