The gasteiztarra who was denied the operation for homelessness dies

  • Gasteiztarra Koldo Arribilwaukee was expelled from the house in 2019. Due to the lack of a dignified residence and the right conditions to go through the postoperative period, Osakidetza refused to change the heart valve in 2020. Now, at age 55, he's died of a heart attack.

Osakidetzak ebakuntza ukatu ziola salatu zuen Koldo Arribillagak. Argazkia: Hala Bedi

Arribil• himself, who resided in a bar after being evicted from his house, publicly denced that, as it was not the right place for the postoperative period, he had been refused the operation to change the heart valve.

Last September, the patient was admitted to a hospital and died of a myocardial infarction a few days after the tragedy. According to sources from El Salto, the patient with aortic stenosis is the usual consequence of this condition.

Iñaki Uribarri, a member of the Argilan-ESK platform, has reported in Hala Bedi Irratia that he has not known such serious cases in recent years that he has been on the platform. He criticized that “it has been the perfect storm of institutional inhumanity”, and does not understand how the usual procedure is not followed: to give a new space to those who do not have a decent housing to pass the postoperative period to be able to pass the postoperative period properly.
