Hospital has no running water
HAVANA, Cuba - June 7 (José Antonio
Fornaris, Cuba Verdad / www.cubanet.org)
- The Iván Portuondo hospital in
San Antonio de los Baños, south of
Havana, has running water only for about
one hour a day, said one pediatrician who
works at the facility, with the result that
doctors sometimes can't wash their hands
to see patients.
The same doctor said that there are several
windows at the hospital that were damaged
by Hurricane Ivan in 2003 that still haven't
been repaired.
The hospital serves the population of three
adjacent municipalities, San Antonio de
los Baños proper, Alquízar,
and Güira de Melena.
