The double-edged crisis in Ceuta: sick immigrants on the street and free hospital beds
If we look at the cold figures, as the Minister of Health, Mónica García, did yesterday, Ceuta is not suffering any healthcare collapse after the latest border assault. The healthcare pressure in the autonomous city has been decreasing since the first day of the mass crossing, when 1,149 people were attended to: last Saturday, 193 were recorded. The University Hospital of Ceuta has expanded its capacity to 212 beds, about half of which are currently empty. There are 101 patients admitted, but the immigrants occupying a bed do not reach thirty.
