TWENTY-FOUR of those injured in the New Year's Eve stampede in Shanghai, east China, have been discharged from hospital, while another 25 are still under medical observation, a city health official said today.
Of those in hospital, 7 are seriously injured and one is in a critical condition, said Wu Jinglei, spokesman for the Shanghai Municipal Health and Family Planning Commission. Those hospitalized include 7 men and 18 women.
Wu said the commission had coordinated a team of medical experts to treat the injured and had offered counseling to them and their families.

Shanghai authorities have verified the identities of all 36 fatalities. Thirty-four were residents of the Chinese mainland, one was from Taiwan and one was a Malaysian citizen.
