Imagine walking long stretches to get water, the vital liquid to drink, bathe or something as simple as lowering the bathroom.
Imagine that everything around you is succumbed in a deep darkness, since electricity has suffered a terrible failure because it never had the proper maintenance.
The people in the hospitals who needed machines to be able to live, have been turned off, children and the elderly, all dead due to the lack of electricity.
Due to the high cost of power plants, telephone companies are also affected by the blackout, so the telephone signal and the Internet were left in the empty hopes of all, wanting to communicate.

Water, having no pumps to drive, or proper maintenance, is something very precious to some, who have seen the need to drink water from public pipes.
Action that worsens when obtaining gastrointestinal bacteria, which can not be combated by the lack of medicines and the precarious attention in the public medical sector of the country.
If you have money, you can buy bottles of drinking water and ice bags, for $ 8 which is approximately 24000bsS, 6000 bsS above the minimum wage, all this with the endless queues that you must do since they all look for the same.
For 4 days, the food if it did not get refrigeration or ice, surely rotted, or you should have cooked it all when it was fully defrosted. How it happened to me, I cooked a part and the rest was damaged.
The banks closed by the power failure, the points of sale do not work because the fixed telephone line that connects them to the bank does not work, which means that people do not have bsS in cash, for which the merchants begin to charge their products in $ in cash.
As crazy as it sounds, in Venezuela, it is more common to see dollars in cash, than bolivars in cash, banks only allow you to withdraw 1000 bsS per box office, and 500 per ATM per day.
While all this is happening, people begin to despair and see how chaos begins to proliferate, people protest the precarious living conditions, while the "collectives" begin to sow terror by shooting in cold blood, by order of the government itself.
In other states, people begin to loot, in stores, businesses and other places, irreparable damage to the commercial sector of the country, which will be in need of losing your investment, or wait for long months if you have insurance , those places where you used to buy food, will be closed for at least a month.
As if none of this was previously sufficient, we find on the radio the few stations that survive the blackout, music as if everything was fine, no information. Only mature Nicolás declaring that all this is the fault of an electromagnetic attack by Trump, to the Guri, where the hydroelectric plant that feeds the whole country, a garbage.
To all this, add the problem that we had before this, the gas, fuel needed to cook food, without water or electricity, many had the need to light a fire and cook their food, as well as if our society had regressed 1000 years
In the image above We see more than 1500 people in front of the ice company, waiting to be dispatched, paying in $ cash.
In this image we see people walking through the avenues pushing carts or carrying tobos with water to their homes.
