[The work experience of a military infectious disease hospital during repeated overloading].

The article analyses the work of the military isolation hospital when it was overloaded 2-2,5 times in the period of 1984-1986 during the war in Afghanistan. Essential conditions were created for the treatment of patients, including up-to-date methods of intensive therapy: hyperbaric oxygenation, hemosorption, quantum autologous hemotherapy, etc. That made it possible to reduce considerably the fatal cases of typhoid, and, in general, the lethality of infectious diseases.
