During the night of January 2, 2022, heavily armed individuals broke into the University Hospital of Haiti (HUEH), commonly called the General Hospital. The thugs took materials and valuables.
The bandits even physically assaulted staff members at the time of their crime.
As a sign of protest, the doctors of the HUEH have announced a work stoppage starting this Tuesday, January 4, 2022.
According to information gathered, these armed men perpetrated this attack to denounce the lack of care given to a pregnant woman during the night of December 30, 2021.
A source close to the hospital said that the largest hospital in the country did not have the necessary equipment to perform certain interventions during childbirth.
