Lionel Messi's father supports the training of medical staff in Barcelona, improving care at a hospital in Rosario.
Dr. Jorge Tartaglione reported that Jorge Messi, father of soccer player Lionel Messi, financed the training of doctors, nurses, and blood transfusion specialists at the Vilela Hospital in Rosario. This initiative facilitated the performance of 100 bone marrow transplants at the health center.
