Nurses said they would remain on strike until they reach a fair and non-discriminatory solution to the requests made by their union while accusing the government of treating them like "animals."
These protests by auxiliary nurses began last Monday, demanding a salary adjustment in one thousand lempiras (about 45 dollars) and 900 lempiras (around 36 dollars) by 2021.
