Reina Isabel Martínez

Reina Isabel Martínez, a 45-year-old worker from Villanueva, Honduras, is a poignant example of the surgical backlog in the country's healthcare system. After being diagnosed with a severe knee condition that impairs her mobility, she has faced numerous delays in receiving the recommended surgery due to lack of funds and resources within the public health system. Her struggle highlights the broader issue of inadequate healthcare access for many Hondurans.
