The Director of Public Health of the SSJ, Elizabeth Ulloa Robles, announced yesterday in an interview that the cause of death was complications of pulmonary type and took place on July 18, in the Old Civil Hospital "Fray Antonio Alcalde." But it was only yesterday when the Institute for Epidemiological Diagnosis and Reference (Indre) reported confirmation from the agency.
"To the patient the result of a health center for study, within 72 hours, fever. Enter the hospital "Fray Antonio Alcalde", but comes with very severe lung damage, or virus was more severe for this patient, unfortunately, "said the official.
When questioned about the delay in confirmation of this death by the Indre, said the institute does not have an order in the delivery of results, sometimes even received a few days after having sent the samples, but other times There are significant delays.
Warns that the death of the young was one of the deaths that were under study to confirm or exclude the disease, so that no deaths are "suspicious", since two of the samples were nonspecific and were unable to give results positive or negative.
The official made a call on the public not to trust and carry out the measures necessary care, in order to prevent further infections and deaths from the disease.
