The death of a baby in a public hospital a month ago is mainly due to rot in food preparations, and the final number of infants who died in the tragedy that shook Tunisia's public is 14, a commission of inquiry in Tunisia said.

The head of the investigation committee, Mohammed al-Douaaji, said in a press conference devoted to presenting the results of the investigation: 14 infants died in the period from 6 to 15 March last in the delivery section of the hospital of the Association, not 15 as previously announced.

Al-Duaji said the death was caused by bacterial rot in preparation of food preparations between the 4th and 8th of March.

Al-Dawaaji confirmed that "there were multiple defects in the bag making room," as well as "maintenance problems, lack of supervision and disrespect for sterilization rules".

The investigation also found that "used bags carry bacteria passing through the hand," in addition to other reasons related to "the absence of training and training of the agents."
