There are seatbelts in every single car yet I did not see one being used until today (my 14 day here)
Breastfeeding is SO not private down here- mamas will do it in a taxi, beach, really anywhere without any worries! Very relaxed and comfortable people down here and at least they are breastfeeding ;)
Only one glove is used (if ever) for very few medical tasks by any medical personnel
Blood is drawn with a syringe- butterflies don't exist!
All the prescription drugs are stored at the centros de salud and they are given freely!
The only vital signs that are taken in el centro are height, weight, blood pressure and blood glucose for diabetics- heart rate and respiratory rates do not apply here!
On a closing note, this morning I attended a breakfast celebration for all of the doctors who are now finished with their year of service. I was SO incredibly proud that Dr. Argenis (who I LOVED working with last week in Manialtepec) won like EVERY big award there was for his class!
Off to see the lagoons at Chacagua this weekend!
