Correct answer
- ANo, nunca.No, never.
An injured person in an accident must not be given any medicine or alcoholic drink. This is because medicines can have unwanted side effects, and alcohol can change the injured person's level of consciousness, making it harder to assess and treat them. In addition, if they need medical treatment, it is better for the health staff to have a clear picture of their condition.
