HAVANA, January 21 (Adrián Leiva Pérez, Grupo Decoro /
www.cubanet.org) - All surgical procedures in Havana hospitals have been
suspended indefinitely because the Provincial Blood Bank doesnt have
enough blood on hand, said a source who asked not to be identified.
At present, hospitals are performing only emergency surgery in cases of life
and death.
The measure by the Public Health Ministry has generated complaints by
patients who expected to have surgery in January. There has been no word on when
the service will be offered again.
