Meanwhile, the main hospitals in the country’s capital have almost no more capacity to care for patients, EFE reported.
According to experts, the Guatemalan population is being a victim of the delta variant, after President Alejandro Giammattei confirmed on Monday, August 9, that he was already present in the country.
The president indicated that 14 cases of the variant were detected after carrying out the analysis of some tests abroad, since it is not possible to evaluate them in Guatemala.
The San Juan de Dios and Roosevelt hospitals, the two most important in the Central American nation, are having problems treating patients with covid-19.
Health was asked if the vaccination centers in the Erick Barrondo Park, Alida Spain, Gerona and the College of Professionals will work this Monday, August 16, but there was no response.
