The shocking video of a Venezuelan mother with the corpse of her daughter, after going to three hospitals without light

The dramatic conditions experienced by Venezuelans are accentuated by the blackout that affects almost the whole country. In health, the most resonant cases are those of patients requiring dialysis, but the anxiety overwhelms the emergency rooms, which are not suitable for the public.

This Sunday, after spending the third night in the gloom, social networks have viralized the shocking images of a mother who carries the body of her daughter in arms, outside a morgue of Valencia, in the state of Carabobo.

Although the victim is 19 years old, his extreme malnutrition caused him to weigh only 10 kilos; his mother therefore carried it without much effort.

"The doctor told me that they had finished their trip because there was no light.
Then I would take him to Las Lomas"The woman starts to tell, the situation gets worse and worse." She began to vomit. Suddenly she was stiff. I ran back home to look for her (another) daughter, "she said.

With the help of the authorities, he went to another hospital, but the luck was the same. "Police left me at the door and the doctor told me that they can not take care of her, there is nothing"he said.

Even death is unworthy in Venezuela. Local journalists report a nauseating odor in morgues, due to the lack of refrigeration of the bodies.

Then, in the funeral homes, many agree to provide the service in case of power failure, provided that customers sign promissory notes to cover the expenses. "It's short vigils, 6 to 7 hours, because the same people, when they notice that there is no light, move away early," said Carlos Peña, head of a Funeral home east of the city.

Hospitals with generators use them in case of emergency. "It's horrible, everything is dark, only certain areas have a power plant they had to use because the hospital was not working," said Sol Dos Santos, 22, of AFP.

Under the leadership of Nicolás Maduro, Venezuela has fallen into the worst crisis in its contemporary history, marked by a marked drug shortage and hyperinflation that should reach 10 000 000% this year, according to the IMF, which imposed an exodus of 2.7 million Venezuelans since 2015, according to the UN.

The director of the NGO Codevida warned that the number of deaths could be increased by the complications of kidney failure. "We have patients who are swollen because of the lack of dialysis, then there is swelling of the extremities, which could lead to cardiac arrest and other complications that could lead to the death of more than 10,200 people on dialysis. country, "he said. .
