During the televised report on Saturdays, the doctor pointed out that the “The case should leave many lessons”, since her relative youth did not exempt her from acquiring the disease. “That message of youth, energy, vitality, knowledge, does not make us immune -he pointed-. We have to become aware of this fact, particularly in this period; The good weather is coming, we begin to socialize more, we are more exposed, we cannot lower our guard ”.

Ortiz – who was a student at Dougnac during her college years – was an internist with 15 years of service. “She was a young, healthy woman. He lowered his guard and contracted the disease outside the hospital ”, the undersecretary pointed out.

“This disease gives no truce she added. Not because they are younger, they are free from a complication like the one Carol suffered ”.
