Granada vehemently denied the accusations against her. They accuse me of political proselytism, but what I do is educate the women about their rights, their human and civic rights, their rights as women. I talk to patients about their right to health under the Nicaraguan constitution. I urge them to use this right and support people that are concerned for the health of the poor. We're trying to provide integral health care, so you can't just hand out pills.
Rights are an essential part of health.
Granada also rejected Aleman's accusation that she had treated only Sandinista patients. All the people come to our clinic. We've treated people with total impartiality in all our programmes. If we build 100 houses or dig 100 latrines, at least half of those go to former Contra families. The only way we can bring peace and reconciliation to the countryside is to be totally non-partisan in providing services.
