Dear Tracy,
Thank YOU for standing up to demand health care for Beatriz, a pregnant mother in El Salvador who could have died after being denied life-saving treatment.
Beatriz finally received treatment yesterday. You, along with hundreds of thousands of activists around the globe, created critical public pressure. Your messages, tweets, solidarity photos and activism pushed officials to save her life -- and they meant the world to Beatriz, her family, and those in El Salvador campaigning tirelessly on her behalf.
Beatriz is now recovering. Add your well wishes to the #SaveBeatriz photo stream.
This appalling situation should never have occurred in the first place: no one should be subjected to cruel, inhumane or degrading treatment when attempting to access medical treatment necessary for their life or health. This is one of the reasons why Amnesty International has launched My Body My Rights, a global campaign focused on sexual and reproductive health rights.
Beatriz's human rights were violated at every step. Let her know you care by sending a "get well" message and stay tuned for future My Body My Rights campaigning opportunities.
In solidarity,
Cristina Finch
Managing Director
Women's Human Rights Program
