NewzAuthorities in the Dominican Republic are investigating the death of 27-year-old Rebecca Brizard, who died following a cosmetic surgery performed at a health center in Alma Rosa I, Santo Domingo Este. The procedure was allegedly conducted by a barber, identified as Emanuel Hernández, who the Ministry of Public Health's Director of Qualification and Accreditation revealed had previously performed at least two other procedures at the same clinic.
Minister of Health Víctor Atallah stated that the ministry will take action against all individuals involved in Brizard's death. The incident is currently under a joint investigation by the National Police and the Public Ministry.
In a separate matter, the Ministry of Public Health has requested that the Ministry of Higher Education, Science and Technology (Mescyt) validate the professional accreditations of Dr. Ernesto Fadul. Fadul is facing scrutiny regarding his academic credentials and a widely debated proposal involving the treatment of autism with natural supplements. Meanwhile, relatives of Angélica Geraldine Hernández, a 30-year-old who died after a cosmetic surgery at the Diosa center in Santiago, have publicly complained about the slow progress of the investigation into her case.
