"This is a representative event with the participation of the heads of all Russian regional divisions of Rospotrebnadzor, members of the government, representatives of the State Duma of Russia, guests from South Ossetia, Abkhazia, the DPR, the LPR, and other countries. I conveyed a congratulatory message and a memorable gift from the President of our Republic, Alan Gagloev," Kochieva said.

On September 15, the sanitary services of Russia and South Ossetia celebrate their professional holiday. The day before, Russian President Vladimir Putin rewarded a number of employees of Rospotrebnadzor in connection with the anniversary date.
On September 15, 1922, a decree of the Council of People's Commissars of the RSFSR "On the sanitary authorities of the republic" was issued, which legalized the system of the state sanitary supervision, defined the rights and obligations of sanitary authorities. This date is considered the day of foundation of the sanitary and epidemiological service. Since that time, the country began to create a network of specialized sanitary and preventive institutions - sanitary and epidemiological stations. In the same period, a sanitary and epidemiological service was established in the South Ossetian Autonomous Region.
Since 2006, the Committee for Supervision of Consumer Rights Protection and Human Welfare of the Republic of South Ossetia (YugOsetpotrebnadzor) has been separated from the Health Ministry of the Republic into the individual structure.
