Parents of children with cancer made a blockade outside Terminal 1 of Mexico City International Airport (AICM), for lack of medicines in hospitals of the Ministry of Health.
With banners that read “There is money for ninis, but not for chemotherapy or medicine” and “If protocol is interrupted, our children may relapse,” the parents formed a human chain that complicated circulation in the vicinity of the airport.

According to reports from the newspaper Reforma, the protesters closed the circulation for more than an hour and a half between gates 3 and 4 of the terminal, because of the lack of supply of cancer drugs.
About the protest, the Ministry of Health pointed out to the medium that the problem with the parents originated because the manufacturer stopped producing a drug and is family members do not allow a new one to be supplied.
