Mexico City, Dec 15 (efe-epa).- Hospitals treating Covid-19 patients in Mexico’s capital are being pushed to the limits of their capacity, a state of affairs that is forcing some people to scramble to find an available bed for their loved ones.
That was the experience of Virginia Mariela, who recently spent six hours searching for a hospital that would admit her sister. “It was horrible. We visited like seven hospitals,” she told Efe on Tuesday.
Only after trying a second time at Parque de los Venados General Hospital was she successful in getting medical care for her sibling, who was having difficulty breathing.
