Fake News about a Dialysis Patient at the Bustamante Hospital for Children

KINGSTON, Jamaica. Wednesday, July 16, 2024: The management of the Bustamante

Hospital (BHC) is advising the public about a photo that has been circulating on social media

of a child wearing an oxygen mask and supposedly suffering from stage 4 kidney disease

while on dialysis machine at BHC is false. According to the hospital's report, there are two

stable dialysis patients at the moment, neither of which is a female. Patients with stage 4

kidney disease at BHC are not on dialysis. SERHA is pleading with the public to stop

disseminating misleading information about its institutions.
