Before noon I was on a new vaccination day when it was the turn of Don Emiliano Parrado, an 83-year-old adult, who arrived with his granddaughter. “The young woman asked me if I could record and I said yes, I always even try to make patients laugh and look good in the photos”, He says.
He proceeded to explain the procedure with the Sinovac vaccine that he would apply, told him the care he should maintain and gave him the appointment for the second dose on April 12.
“You know when people are recording and it doesn’t make me angry because I would do the same. I took the cotton ball and put the syringe in it, but when I did, I realized that I forgot to enter the dose, ”he recalls.
Everything was in a video that according to her also captures the part in which He explains the mistake to the granddaughter, makes excuses for her, and asks if she can repeat the procedure. “I confessed to him that I didn’t know what I was thinking when I put the needle in and to forgive me. All that should have been in the video but only the first part was published, “he says.

“It was my fault. I really don’t know what happened to me. I was able to keep quiet, but they taught me that you have to tell the truth even if the whole world comes to you, and that’s why I told my granddaughter about my mistake. My duty was to do it so that the man did not leave without a dose, a life was at stake, “he says.
The nursing assistant also states that Don Emiliano’s granddaughter accepted the apology and allowed the new inoculation.
At that time the issue did not pass to greater. However, in the afternoon, when she was already waiting for the bus to go home, the clinic called her to come back. The video was already on social networks and this woman was not downgraded as a criminal.
“I have seen the comments and they are horrible. They are investigating me and with my work I support my children. I am a simple worker. A nursing assistant who loves what she does. And I can only say that a mistake is made by anyone”, He asserts.
