The 23-year-old Venezuelan was trying to get to the Colombian city of Medellin with his wife. She is seven months pregnant. They had no money for transportation by the time they reached the small town of Pamplona, about 480 kilometers away from Medellin. Hernández hoped to get a ride on the back of a truck to cross the Paramo de Berlin, an area high in the mountains. “My wife can barely walk,” said Hernández. “We need transport to get us out of here,” he added. The Associated Press (AP) reports the two spent four days sleeping on Pamplona’s sidewalks. Venezuelans are again fleeing their nation’s economic and humanitarian disaster. The disease COVID-19 and measures to slow its spread halted one of the world’s biggest migration movements. Venezuelans are going to Colombia to escape an economy where many people earn less than two dollars a month.
