Denied entry, man with kidney problems dies at door of CDMX hospital
“…The Mexican Social Security Institute (IMSS) is investigating after a man died at the door of a Mexico City hospital to which he was denied entry.
A 48-year-old man with kidney problems arrived at an IMSS hospital in the northern borough of Gustavo A. Madero on Wednesday morning to seek medical treatment. According to his family, he was denied treatment and not even allowed to enter the emergency department.
A video posted to social media shows the man’s son imploring healthcare workers to treat his father. But his pleas were to no avail…”
Los familiares de este hombre insistían en que tenía problemas renales y no #COVID19 y aún así no lo atendieron. ESTE es el servicio de salud PÚBLICA en #Mexico @lopezobrador_ @SSalud_mx @Tu_IMSS 👇🏻https://t.co/JoDvlmT39V
