Germán Alemanno, Argentine soccer player naturalized Peruvian, revealed to 'Súper Mitre' the crisis that Peru is experiencing due to COVID-19.

"It's very complicated in Peru, the system is overwhelmed. Today you don't die from the disease, you die because they can't attend to you for another illness," stated the former player of Universitario de Deportes.

"The public health system is very bad, I complained my whole life in Argentina but we are light years away. Here if you don't have money, you die. They put a price on life," he added.

In another part, the 36-year-old former soccer player recounted what he experienced with an ill family member. "My sister-in-law's father-in-law got sick, they went to the private clinic and they told him he had the virus. They took him to a hospital and put him with people who had COVID-19, but they did the test from the Ministry of Health and, finally, it came out negative. He went back home and infected his 70-year-old wife. They took her to be hospitalized and asked for $40,000 to give her a bed so she could be admitted," he said.
