  • Covid-19. Doctors denounce the lack of material and protection against the coronavirus in the hospital set up in Ifema

"We do not have the resources that we demand," complains Francisco José Izquierdo, the president of the Ciudad Real Pharmaceutical College and the Castilla-La Mancha College. This Sunday a college student died in Alcázar de San Juan from coronavirus. "At first she looked like a healthy woman . She was a professional very involved with healthcare issues. She spent her last days asking what she could do to improve the safety of her workers, if there were masks," Izquierdo told this newspaper.

The College of Pharmacists signed "a framework agreement" with the regional government so that they could receive protection material. "We agreed that when the material arrived, they would send us everything necessary. Last week, a shipment was sent from the Ministry. We touched a mask for each of the members, " he explains.

"From the schools we have wanted to transfer professionals who try to be as rigorous as possible to avoid having such direct contact." Among those measures is keeping a meter of separation from the patient, washing hands or using the night dispensers, "the guardians".

Francisco José Izquierdo demands more attention. "We are and we want to be in this crisis," he says. "We have a vocation as health professionals that we are, our pharmacies are open 24 hours a year, and we have no material ."

The political management of the Covid-19 crisis floats in the environment. "I do not know if the central government did it right or wrong. I am not the one to say it. Nor do I know if certain forecasts were made ," Izquierdo replies. "We are going to miss our partner."
