Sick Kids Hospital doctors stage street demonstration

Doctors and specialists from Panama’s Children’s Hospital (HN), took to the streets on  Monday, December 17, to express their frustrations over the delay in the construction of the new facilities that has spanned two administrations.

The doctors said they have waited for a long time and now face the cancelation of the  bidding process for the construction after claims were presented by some companies against  those that obtained better scores and now they have no idea when construction will start

They explained that the facilities in the 60-years-old building are in terrible condition and  doctors seeking admittance for children have to fight for beds.
