No doctors for the forgotten villages of Chocó

Pie de Pató (Colombia), Dec 8 (EFE), (Camera: Mauricio Dueñas / Irene Escudero) - Diana Patricia Orejuela's grandmother died without knowing why. There was no diagnosis because there are no doctors in her isolated community in Colombia. The nearest health center is 4 hours away on the river and sometimes when they arrive they are sent back without being able to determine exactly what is wrong.
