Summary
Venezuela’s healthcare system is collapsing under the weight of two devastating earthquakes that have left thousands injured and nearly a thousand dead, with hospitals stretched to their limits. Doctors, working with minimal staff and resources, are improvising care outdoors as supplies vanish and patients are forced to pay for basic treatment. Community donations and rapid humanitarian aid are keeping the system afloat, while doctors extend care beyond hospitals through telemedicine and mental health support. With aftershocks still shaking the region and families searching for missing loved ones, the medical response remains heroic — and far from over.
