translated from Spanish: Hospitals don’t have medicine THE DEBATE

Bravely, a father exposes the critical state of the general desupply of medicines and supplies at the Pediatric Hospital.

Jesús Manuel Rodríguez, father of little Jesusito, desperately narrates his case, saying that he spends up to 5,500 pesos a day to keep his son in medicine, since in the Pediatric there is not even a syringe. Like him, there are dozens of parents who are in them, facing expenses that are supposed to be covered through the Insabi.
