There is no epidemic of influenza and tuberculosis in San Carlos

The authorities of San Carlos Hospital clarified that a video that circulates in WhatsApp showing an e- mail order for influenza and tuberculosis is old and does not correspond to the current reality in that area of ​​the country.

According to Dr. Edgar Carillo, director of the hospital, that video was recorded four years ago, in order to alert the population, due to the increase in cases of influeza, but things are not like this right now; in fact, this weekend there was a substantial reduction in case management due to respiratory viruses.
