The news has dropped like a jug of cold water among the women who had joined this solidarity initiative. And despite the indications of Health, the toilets are already using them, “we have nothing else, welcome,” they comment to the chain SER.
The doubts have arisen after the usual press conference of the Minister of Health, Manuel Villegas, in which he referred to the possibility of using or not using the glasses made by the UPCT with 3D printing as a protection measure for the health workers. Villegas has said that they do not have official approval yet and therefore cannot be offered to health professionals, but yes to other professionals who do not require official approval.
After the uncertainty created among all the people who these days have poured into the preparation of gowns, masks or any other prevention material against the Covid-19. This department has contacted Salud to resolve this question. The answer: Health remembers that there is no indication for its use from the SMS, but in the event that a professional wants to use this material voluntarily, they will be given the appropriate recommendations for optimal use.

Health personnel indicate to the SER network that in the absence of material, they have no choice but to use what has come to them thanks to this type of initiative that emerged on the street; such as the 2,200 gowns that have arrived today at the Morales Meseguer hospital, or the thousands that have arrived this weekend at the Comarcal del Noroeste hospital, in Caravaca de la Cruz. “If we don’t have other material, we will have to use these, so they don’t bother us,” says one of the nurses affected.
“They are cured in health; never better said, saying that they have not given an indication from the Murcia Health Service to use these gowns, but when you have nothing to wear to protect yourself, it seems like the best solution “he comments.
“We will always be very grateful to women that they have left it all these days to be able to finish these robes as soon as possible. And of course they serve us, and so much, “they explain to the BEING between disbelief and resignation.

Meanwhile, they hope that the samples of support received during the first days from different neighborhood councils and municipalities, such as the one in Murcia and Bullas, will materialize in the coming days. “For the moment the only one that has kept its word has been the Bullas Town Hall, the others have not”, they tell us.
Apparently and according to what both the Neighborhood Boards of the districts involved and the Murcia City Council tell us they had promised to give their share in the form of aid to pay the cloth (the cut of the same had been a donation) with which the nearly 4,000 robes have been made, something that for the moment has not happened.
“They said yes, and two hours later they would see. Everything is very sad. We do not understand how a movement like this does not have the financial support of local administrations, If they are not here to help us, what are they for then?“asks one of the promoters of this initiative, who recognizes between sadness and exhaustion these days that they are going to make the 1,000 robes they are cutting and 2,000 pajamas tomorrow.” And we stopped. We do not risk more on the street, nor do we bother the women who are sewing so much with the desire to help and push, to then have this type of response from the administration “, they assure us.
Finally, they wonder if the donation of a week ago by the Chinese community in Murcia has the proper approval, “Chinese citizens donated thousands of surgical masks to the SMS a few days ago, masks that are being used and are not approved or have the same approval as our gowns”, said sources to the SER chain.
