The campaign launched by the Aragón Health Research Institute (IIS Aragón) 'Investigate Covid-19' continues to raise funds to finance its projects related to the coronavirus, also outside Aragonese territory. Carmen García Rodríguez Alonso, nursing assistant and writer from Segovia, will donate 13 euros for each copy of her latest novel sold. What happens in the kitchen while I die? At the moment, he has already allocated 2.000 euros to this cause and is confident that the figure will continue to grow thanks to readers in Zaragoza, who can buy the work at the Paris bookstore, as well as on the website https://librosderviche.com/producto/que-ocurre-en-la-cocina-mientras-muero, at a price of 16,95 euros.
What happens in the kitchen while I die? It is the fourth novel by García, born in Navas de Oro (Segovia). It tells the story of Elisa, who, terminally ill, begins to suffer hallucinations as a result of her medication. Until one night she receives an unexpected visitor who will offer her the impossible. “It is an erotic novel with Faustian overtones and a defined ending but, at the same time, a little open. The moral is that we can regret not having lived true to our instincts and that making a pact with the devil always has a price,” summarizes the author.
Carmen García chose IIS Aragón to contribute her “grain of sand” because “when I read their research projects I understood them, in addition to the fact that their managers are accessible and very communicative, I have a lot of faith in them,” she says. “Protective material has been greatly lacking, but now that those needs are being covered, we have to look at research. It is our only hope so that this does not happen again,” she emphasizes.
From her experience as a nursing assistant for the Segovia Provincial Council, the IIS Aragón projects “are very applicable and very necessary.” These are aimed at finding effective methods to prevent the spread of coronavirus and improve the diagnosis and clinical treatment of infected patients. Until now, the
Aragonese institute, thanks to the funds collected in the campaign and the contributions from the Government of Aragon and the Carlos III Health Institute, has launched nine COVID-19 research projects. Additionally, IIS Aragón participates in seven clinical trials and is carrying out another 12 studies related to the coronavirus.
