(MED) Israeli Doctors Arrive In Romania To Treat Babies Burned In Hospital Fire

"Seven premature babies were in critical condition after a fire in an intensive care unit at a Bucharest hospital, in which four babies died.

Israeli doctors who rushed to Romania on Wednesday said they feared there was not much they could do to help seven premature infants who were critically burned in a hospital fire that left four other babies dead.

Romanian doctors at Bucharest's Grigore Alexandrescu children's hospital where the injured babies are being treated said the infants weigh just 1 to 2.5 kilograms (2.2 to 5.5 pounds) and are burned on up to 80 percent of their bodies and respiratory tracts."
