They denounce the presence of dogs and cats in the pediatric hospital rooms of Santiago de Cuba.

Users on social media express outrage over the neglect prevailing at the Southern Children's Hospital in Santiago de Cuba, better known as La Colonia, where dogs and cats roam freely.

The social communicator Yosmany Mayeta shared on Facebook the complaint of several people, who sent images showing dogs and cats walking freely through the halls of the hospital center.

The independent journalist questioned: "Children's hospital or veterinary clinic?", when sharing images where a dog and a cat can be seen in the rooms alongside the patients and their families.

Yosmany Mayeta recalled that, in recent days, this hospital facility received criticism due to blackouts, lack of hygiene in the bathrooms, poor service, and terrible food.

"And now dogs and cats inside the hospital rooms," he pointed out. "Leaves much to be desired when it comes to hygienic and sanitary conditions."

Recently, the main leaders of Santiago de Cuba visited this healthcare center to supervise "the cleaning and sanitation days" that were carried out in La Colonia.

The publication by Manuel Falcón, governor of the province, boasted that these measures aim to “guarantee a healthy environment” in the same hospital where dogs and cats roam freely and with impunity.
