translated from Spanish: Director of San Jose Hospital ruled out no fans available

Luis Escobar, director of San José Hospital, ruled out the absence of mechanical fans available at the hospital, after it was reported that a patient who was transferred to the compound died of lack of devices.
The Federation of Public Health Associations (Fedesap) reported on Sunday night that a person died by Covid-19 and did not address the emergency with these respirators, because there was no availability of them.
Escobar reported that “the patient entered yesterday Sunday, May 10 at around 5 p.m. with severe respiratory failure. It is directed directly to the resuscitation room, it is partially compensated, proceeding to hospitalize, with the medical diagnosis of Covid’s suspicion”.
In response to the complaint of lack of fans, Escobar stated that “The Hospital San José currently has four mechanical fans available”.
The director of the hospital establishment, he also said, about the capacity of the enclosure, which “we’re not outdone, but we’re very far on the verge.”
This day, the Under-Secretary of Care Networks, Arturo Zúñiga, had ruled out that the death in the hospital compound had been caused by the absence of a mechanical fan.
