I have a very ill father who is stremely ill. !
The same situation is here on the North Coast Maria - lots of very ill people being diagnosed as EXstremely ill!! Must be contageous!!
aranoid:
there are three other in local hospital.!
Regrettably our local hospitals have a lot more than three patients in them so Puerto Plata is obviously much worse than Santiago! :tired:
We will all die sooner or later but this can be avoided.!
If you have knowledge of the way that we can avoid dieing sooner or later, please post it here. Alternatively ley me know by PM & I'll cut you in on the royalties we will make selling the information! :cheeky:
The hausefly(moscas) is one of the way its spread.!
I think you mean HOUSEfly. Don't they come around where people have not cleaned up scraps of food etc too? If you are worried about loads of houseflys in your house might I suggest a good clean up session after eating & preparing of meals? :cheeky:
Hand washing is not done on the street.!
How very observant of you. Could this be because the taps don't normally stretch that far & so running water can not be turned on 'In the street'?
the contaminant is human waste.
Are you refering to excrement here or just basic food leftovers? If the latter I strongly advise you to have words with the Health & Saftey authorities in Santiago - I find they do sterling work up here in Puerto Plata when told about 'human waste' being carelessly discarded.[/QUOTE]
In Santiago the health oficials equipment is a pen and a notebook. No wounder our health is a risk here. Have a nice blind leading the blind day!
Might I enquire as to your solutions for this problem Maria - do you HAVE a suggestion or two to make? I did not see your name on the roster when the 'Clean Up Santiago' campaigns were launched two years ago & wonder why this might be? Not your job? No Time? ...:surprised.... The blind only lead the blind when no-one else steps up to the plate & takes control of the problems/situation for themselves. M'thinks you spend far too much time complaining & too little time actually DOING something constructive!
Have a nice "Stick your head in the sand & blame someone else for the country's woes" day :ermm:~ Grahame.
