Sinaloa.- The facilities of the Autonomous University of Sinaloa throughout the state are available to the health sector in case the covid-19 pandemic worsens, rector Juan Eulogio Guerra Liera declared.
If necessary, buildings such as Radio UAS, the Sports Center, among others, could be conditioned and used to meet a higher demand for infections.
Likewise, the university will try to support supplies and personnel to cover the greatest demand, highlighting the work of the Technological Innovation Park, where it works in the manufacture of artificial respirators and protective equipment.
At the chemistry school, they make antibacterial gel that is intended to be distributed free of charge. About a thousand liters have been produced, in presentations of liter, liter and a half and gallon.
Interns from the medical school and the nursing career will directly support the Secretary of Health, both in hospitals and in the care of the call center implemented for immediate attention to the population by phone.
Courses and workshops are also held so that they are trained to care for patients.
The rector added that there is the possibility of suspending activities planned for the end of the school break, such as the UAS Festival and the application of the Ceneval exam.
He noted that although they are at risk of losing many more classes, what is worrying now is the state of health of the population, saying that this alert may not end until the end of the year.
