Gas Scare in Eskifjörður 28. júní 2006 10:05 Sjúkraflug frá Eskifirði vegna eitrunnar sem kom upp þar. Tekið 27,06,06, 34 people had to be rushed to the hospital in Eskifjörður due to hydrogen chlorine gas that was the result of a acetic acid being mixed with the chloride in the swimming pool in Eskifjörður. This resulted in drop of the acid level in the pool and the HCI gas that came resulted in a chemical compound with the water which is life threating. The mistake was fortunately discovered by workers in the vicinity. The reaction of local officals was efficient and a chopper and airplane with medical staff aboard left from Reykjavík to assist in the rescue effort. Four people were taken to the hospital in Reykjavik but their condition is stable. The cause of the accident is said to be an error in shipment. Acetic acid was delivered to the swimming pool instead of chlorine. mld News News in English Mest lesið Öryggisráðið ákveður að taka yfir Gasa-borg Erlent Hundarnir þegar aflífaðir en ákvörðun um lógun ólögmæt Innlent Dvalarleyfi langtum dýrara í hinum Norðurlöndunum Innlent Telja að lífvörður myndi aðeins gera ferðamenn kærulausari Innlent Keppa við Kínverja og Rússa um að koma kjarnakljúfi til tunglsins Erlent Nauðsynlegt að fólk fái úrræði til að vernda sig frá djúpfölsunum Innlent Sektaður fyrir að aka á 321 kílómetra hraða Erlent Fann hagtölur sem honum líkar og hélt óvæntan blaðamannafund Erlent Skjálfti fannst á höfuðborgarsvæðinu Innlent Skýrasta myndin af halastjörnunni, eða vopninu, hingað til Erlent
