The day had begun with the usual hazards: chronic shortages of antibiotics, intravenous solutions, even food. Then a blackout swept over the city, shutting down the respirators in the maternity ward.

Doctors kept ailing infants alive by pumping air into their lungs by hand for hours. By nightfall, four more newborns had died.

"The death of a baby is our daily bread," said Dr. Osleidy Camejo, a surgeon in the nation's capital, Caracas, referring to the toll from Venezuela's collapsing hospitals.The economic crisis in this country has exploded into a public health emergency, claiming the lives of untold numbers of Venezuelans."

--You think maybe those babies wanted to live? But due to Socialism they died. There is no fucking "other type" of socialism. There is just one type, where elites trick idiots into giving them everything and then the idiots allow themselves to be beaten and starved to death for it. Idiots who say "that's not my type of socialism" are just as stupid as the people who wanted to partner with the "other Al Qaeda".
