A nurse is accused of sexually abusing a trans woman in a hospital.

It happened at San Martín Hospital in La Plata. Shirley, a 61-year-old trans woman, went to the emergency room due to a spike in blood pressure. There, she was treated using male pronouns, and then, according to her complaint, a nurse sexually assaulted her in an elevator. A formal complaint has been filed, and yesterday social organizations held a press conference at the provincial Ministry of Health.
