The Advisor to the regional North of the doctor Dominican College (CMD), Manase penalty, said yesterday that the suspected cases of cholera are overflowing hospitals public and private in the province of Santiago, and considered that the Ministry of public health should not obscure that reality.

Pe?a, who was until recently Chairman of the regional North of the CMD, told Listin Diario, called on health authorities to investigate the death of Joanly Mendoza Acosta, 6 year-old child, who died on Tuesday at a health centre in this city.

The child, who lived together with their families in the town of cinnamon, 11 kilometers southwest of Santiago, was admitted to a medical centre of Santiago with vomiting, diarrhea, and headache.

According to Pe?a, it is worrying that the suspected cases of cholera have been detected in the province of Santiago, come from communities where there is a high population of Haitian immigrants.

"In cinnamon, Hato del Yaque and all those places between Santiago and Mao, there are many Haitian immigrants and are concerned that diarrheal cases, come from these locations," he told Listin Diario.

According to the doctor, it is important to build hospitals in border towns of Haiti, so those Haitian patients, without the need to cross to Dominican territory looking for medical care.

However, he said that in this plan must be involved the international community and the Dominican State, in return, to provide and fund the doctors that laborar?an in these hospitals.

Pena reported that many diseases that were thought were eradicated in the country they have reappeared and others that were still unknown have affected Dominicans and Dominican, and that that is due to the lack of control that exists on the border that separates the two countries.
