Air date: Mar 25, 2016

Krishnan Guru-Murthy and Patrick Wells travel to Venezuela, where they are joined by a family's frantic door-to-door search for medicines for their desperately ill daughter. This is one of the thousands of families who are affected by the shortage of drugs and medical equipment across the country. The episode visits a hospital lacking items as basic as antibiotics, and if doctors decide to speak out they are labelled anti-revolutionaries. The show will reveal how one of the world's biggest oil producers has been crippled by an economic disaster.
