Venezuela hospital crisis deepens: Valera Central lacks supplies, families intervene

At Hospital Central Dr. Pedro Emilio Carrillo in Valera, Trujillo state, families and staff report severe shortages of essential supplies and deteriorating services, contradicting official claims of a well-supplied system. The situation reflects a broader pattern of healthcare collapse in Venezuela, with no immediate policy change indicated. This matters as it signals worsening humanitarian conditions and potential for increased migration pressure.
