Increased malnutrition in Táchira state

in #english6 years ago
In the Táchira state, "the statistics of malnutrition have increased" among patients who attend the public nutrition consultation or who had hospitalization centers in the state network, it was expected that the index of malnutrition would increase in the Tachira state seeing that in the presidential elections passed on May 20, President Nicolas Maduro won, I can say with certainty that this does not only happen in the Tachira state but in the other states of the nation.

In the case of the Tachira state, the consolidated figures for 2018 Corposalud report some degree of malnutrition (adding up due to nutrient deficit and excess of flours). In 59% of children from zero to 12 years who attended the consultation or were hospitalized in the care network, in 61% of adults between 30 and 59 years with the same characteristics and in 65% of older adults, knowing these figures is an alarming situation since for anybody it is a secret that the Tachirense works at the border or as cataloged by President Nicolas Maduro doing bachaqueo, although the Tachirense makes some money on the border with Colombia for half a meal and even then these figures are recorded. What will it be in the other states that do not have a border?.

"None of the four laws of food: quantity, quality, harmony and adequacy of consumption is met. The nutritional status of the population of Tachira is not balanced, "says the regional coordinator of nutrition and diet of the Health Corporation, Graciela Watts.

And to complete due to lack of funding, there is a technical closure in the area of hospitalization for the nutritional recovery of children, Dr. Pastor Oropeza, in San Cristóbal.Patients like my neighbor's two children, in whose home "meat" or chicken do not "taste" enough time, the specialists have seen more influx of Tachirenses children with a lack of protein tendency.

At the Central hospital, I was told that the queue in the nutrition outpatient clinic has gone down, to this is added the problems of public transportation, adult patients have seen that many times they can not meet the diet they are told, in a hyperinflation contest.
