It rains on wet and storm.One of the companies that owns cinemas in Galicia, Coruña Films SL -Dueña de las Salas of the Elliptical Square in Vigo, Cinexpo in Pontevedra and Pontevella in Ourense, among others - continues to refuse to admit spectators with food from the outside.
The denial of access even affects children with metabolic diseases that require controlled and special nutritional needs such as diabetics, as the association that groups them has just denounced, anedia.This newspaper contacted the cinemas of the elliptical square to obtain its version but sources of the same indicated that "we do not want to make any statement."
The last battle of this war took place on Wednesday afternoon where, again and ignoring the request of the councilor do population, in the aforementioned cinemas of the olivic city, the Teucro and As Burgas - always according to anedia -He prohibited the entrance to small diabetics with their backpacks where they were carrying their snacks and glucometer (glucose meter that people with diabetes should use an hour before and after each meal), as the drafting in Faro indicated in Faro.
As a consequence, the mothers and fathers of those affected - which are part of Anedia, Association of Nenas and Nenas with Diabete in Galicia - filed claims.The president of the collective, Ana Pérez, explained yesterday that "we are studying what legal measures can be adopted."Among the first ones that consider, it is to transfer what happened to the Diabetes Federation and claim, again, to the councilor do population.
This went to Pontevedra on the 18th to deal with the matter with those responsible for the organization.Nine days later, he informed them that he was resolved.Anedia decided to try yesterday if so."It was a surprise that in Vigo and Pontevedra prohibited entrance with the backpacks where they carried their snacks and glucometers," Ana Pérez said.
One of the problems of diabetic people is that the quantity and choice of foods they ingest, as well as schedules.Each food has a glycemic index.This measures to what extent foods containing carbohydrates raise glucose in the blood.Palomitas, chucheías, fried potatoes and white bread, for example, are among the foods with the highest glycemic index, therefore, they must be avoided.
Diabetic people must follow a "adjusted meal schedule", since a 30 -minute delay in the intake can cause hypoglycemia, a drop in the blood sugar level, they explain from ane.This, according to the National Institut of Diabetes, "can happen suddenly. It is usually mild and can be treated quickly and easily when eating or drinking a small portion of glucose -rich foods. If hypoglycemia is not treated, it canworsen and cause confusion, clumsiness or fainting.
The ane president, Ana Pérez, stressed that "lack sensitivity" when taking into account the needs of diabetics."The child's situation with this disease is hard."Nor in schools there is 100% understanding with inappropriate school menus for them, alteration of food schedules or the negative of the Xunta to force teachers to measure glucose or prick insulin to the children, he added.
