In the newcomers, BA was characterized by its incidence among those over 45 years of age, by the rarity of ABA, predominance of the disease of medium gravity. Meanwhile among the indigenous population, the incidence of IABA, primarily grave course and BA incidence in persons of the young and mature ages were recorded. The lethal outcomes were mainly registered in winter and summer.
