00:00Good morning. We are approaching Alameda Avenue, one of the central avenues here in the city of Pinar del Río.

00:12It is an avenue that is quite passable and many cars circulate at all hours of the day.

00:23In these hours of the morning, as you can see, there is a lot of traffic.

00:34And here, as you can see, almost occupying the sidewalk, there is this vending machine.

00:51A vending machine that is practically occupying the sidewalk, as I said.

00:57The containers are full.

01:01However, the municipal companies here in the city of Pinar del Río do not worry about collecting the solid waste

01:13that accumulates daily, polluting public resources and generating infections and diseases.

01:26The city of Pinar del Río is now with a high rate of dengue infection and other diseases.

01:37Hospitals also have many people admitted.

01:45However, there are no drugs to alleviate this situation.

01:50And here, this is one of the reasons why the city of Pinar del Río does not systematically collect solid waste.

02:06This is abandonment. This is not for the lack of equipment to collect and clean the city.

02:13This is abandonment.

02:17Here, in this place, there is a collection center.

02:30However, just a few meters from here, the situation they present says quite the opposite.

02:48Right now, you can't pass through here.

02:51People have to go to one side.

02:54And here, the same things are deposited.

02:56Dead animals, sanitary paper, rubble, solid waste, food scraps.

03:11The population has no way to throw them in a container and keep everything clean.

03:26This has been going on for months here.

03:28Months.

03:30In the middle of a city.

03:32And in the middle of a crisis of diseases like the ones we have today in Pinar del Río.

03:42Pediatricians are full of children with dengue.

03:48Hospitals are also full.

03:53And both the government and the party, as well as the company that should regulate this situation, do nothing about it.

04:05From the city of Pinar del Río.
