Christmas dawns with basic health units with queues over two hours and no vaccination | Great northern river

UBS in Nova Descoberta, in the southern region of Natal, did not open its doors on Tuesday morning. Those who have ordered the unit — even with scheduled tests or a vaccine — can’t be seen. No prior notice was given to the public.

a report Inter TV Kabuji The Municipal Health Secretariat (SMS) sought out the issue, but as of a recent update to this report had not received a response.

At UBS in Brasilia Temosa, in the eastern region of the capital, there was only one doctor to fill the entire demand, according to patient information. Five municipal health workers who work for UPS went on strike.

People who were looking for sponsorship and went to UBS this morning reported at least two hours in line. The service was slow and the waiting room was full.

Carer Auxiliadora Gomez complained: “The situation is terrible. They say they only have one doctor and the nurses are on strike. My daughter came for antenatal care and the doctor is also on strike.”

“Everyone wants to take care of themselves, diseases are coming, and the virus. The hospitals are all full and nothing. We have lost a lost journey. Full of people here for consultations and nothing,” he added.

Another problem was the lack of vaccination. In the unit, one of the technicians he was introduced to had gone on strike and the other had a medical certificate.

“They said there is no vaccine and there was no prediction when it would come. If there are people who will come, there is no vaccine. In short: disregard for society. We need it there, we can’t get there and waste our day waiting for a simple vaccine,” Francisco Fernandez complained.

Undervaccination has also been reported in UBS in Lagoa Seca. The justification was the number of professionals available to be assigned to the job in the face of the strike action. Since there was only one nursing technician on duty, he was directed to another service area.
