to their
lives,
said
doctor

the
burns
room at
the Juan
Bruno
Zayas

“We have
received
spontaneous
support
by all
the
medical

in the
hospital,
even
specialized
nurses,
who were
on
holidays
after
having
concluded
their
mission
in
Venezuela;
they
came to
the
hospital
and
thanks
to all
of them
we are
facing
this
dramatic
situation,”
the
doctor
said.
Doctor

underscored
the hard
work
underway
to save
the life
of each
patient
as

work in
permanent
shifts,
in what
she
called a
strong
battle
against
death to
save
each
life
based on
professionalism
and the
deepest
humane
feelings.
