We are not interested in that, but we have officially the information, and we ask the federal sector that we report, to take the necessary precautions, because if we learned from the media, then we are doing disservice to react. "

- The death shocked the State Government?

- "The information took us by surprise, because for us the death was not corroborated, and this allowed us to see how much is running the health sector as a whole ... not Tlaxcala feeds information to the national system, the entities themselves"
