Eight doctors from the British Columbia College of General Medicine have died of Covid-19

The president of this college, Yesenia Espinosa, said that at least 8 doctors from the Baja California College of General Medicine have died since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic due to this condition.

“8 of my school died. Mexico is the country with the highest number of health workers with deaths from Covid-19. We must remember that the health sector received low-quality materials, and here they had a different situation because schools and private initiatives brought good protective equipment” , the doctor added.

Espinosa noted that during the state’s previous government administration, it was necessary for private doctors to march to demand the implementation of their Covid-19 vaccine.

“We private sector doctors marched so that they could apply vaccines to us, because they did not vaccinate us, there were many deaths, private doctors died, because we continue to treat patients with Covid-19 who did not go to health centers because they were afraid that they would get sick Plus. They gave us the first dose on March 27.”

With the current administration led by Marina del Pilar Avila Olmeda as governor and Adrian Medina Amarillas as health minister, vaccination has been conducted throughout the health sector without distinction between private and public.

The private sector did not have to take to the streets. They asked us in the previous administration to know our number, it only tormented our ears, and for this we took to the streets. “Currently they have vaccinated the entire health sector, and no distinction is made between the private or the public sector,” explained the head of the College of General Practitioners.
