Some healthcare professionals are heard shouting: “Beautiful, champion!”

According to local media, Perez was admitted in the hospital on 19th March after suffering with breathing problems during her 37th week of pregnancy.

As the pregnant woman also suffers with asthma, she was considered a patient at high risk.

Perez told local media: “They were very good with me, I had everything and they always helped me.”

She added: “I have just left only to come back again very soon, but at least I can rest at home and I feel very good.”

The hospital wrote on Twitter: “This is a ray of sunshine that gives us the strength to defeat this pandemic. We are looking forward to seeing her again to deliver her beautiful baby into the world.”
