Provincial Health, Women and Social Welfare Director Paula Bernardo told Radio Mozambique today that the number of people hospitalized had decreased to 35, from 196.
Police spokesman Zeferino Sande said in an interview with Radio Mozambique that the barrel in which the beer was brewed has disappeared and that their investigation has no leads yet.
