Buenos Aires. At the commemoration of the revolution that began the independence process against the Spanish empire in 1810, President Alberto Fernández, together with his Mexican counterpart, Manuel López Obrador, announced this Tuesday the arrival from Mexico of the vaccine against Covid-19 Oxford. -Astra Zeneca, produced between both countries; While an attack was recorded here this morning that destroyed the main partisan premises of the ruling Frente de Todos, in Bahía Blanca in the south of the province of Buenos Aires and the opposition right-wing alliance Cambiemos took to the streets again in this capital and Rosario with marches minority but threatening.

In this context, the president brought to justice the leader of the right-wing Republican Proposal (PRO) Patricia Bullrich for the false accusation that Fernández knew that the former Minister of Health, Ginés González García, asked the Pfizer company for bribes to buy the vaccine, which this laboratory strongly denied.

In addition, Pfizer denied that the government had required it to have the businessman Hugo Sigman as an intermediary in the negotiations and remarked that “the sale to private parties is not foreseen” and that “the supply agreements for our vaccine against Covid-19 are being carried out only with national governments and supranational organizations ”, and negotiating with the Argentine government. The former Minister of Health, Gonzáles García, will also present a judicial complaint.

On the other hand, various organizations will bring to justice the opposition activities that prompted the failure to comply with health protocols and caused an almost uncontrollable increase in infections in the second wave of Covid-19; Jurists will sue the Supreme Court for these same reasons. Among others, the British newspaper The Guardian, mention the responsibility of the Argentine opposition in the worsening of the pandemic.

While in the attack against the premises of the Frente de Todos in Bahía Blanca, the perpetrators left leaflets stating that this is the “beginning of the purge”, which in the jargon of the Buenos Aires police, is a statement of “dirty” war against the government of President Fernández.

The explosion destroyed the interior, furniture and computers and blew up part of the front of the building. In the pamphlets they warn the government and the militancy: “Now to beware traitors, we know where they live” and other slogans that are part of the dirty war of Cambiemos. The blast wave also damaged parts of nearby residential and commercial buildings.

Indifferent to everything, the toughest groups of Cambiemos took to the streets here and in Rosario, Santa Fe province, violating the last government decree that the Senate also approved, without caring about the collapse situation in all the country’s hospitals, especially in this capital ruled by opponents. In Santa Fe, people have died without being able to be treated.

To this is added that in general the Argentines in this new wave are demonstrating in a majority the compliance with the new restrictions established for nine days to stop the multiplication of infections.

The Association of Doctors of the Argentine Republic (AMRA) criminally denounced the anti-quarantine group that last Sunday held a demonstration in the Parque de las Colectividades, and also promoted the call for a march that took place today.

“We ask that justice act because a crime is being committed here; There is a DNU (National Emergency Decree), you cannot summon people, you cannot walk without a chinstrap, and there are those who are haranguing for this to happen, what they are doing is criminal, “said the head of AMRA, Sandra Maiorana. For his part, the municipal Health Secretary, Leonardo Caruana, requested the intervention of the College of Physicians of Santa Fe on the actions of the denial group, considering that they “endanger the health scene.”

The College of Physicians repudiated “the denial of the pandemic, the rejection of certain sectors of the scientific responses that are being developed and all the concentrations, marches and public expressions that try to install this denial position in the field of health and society. as a whole”.

One of the promoters of the marches is Mariano Arriaga, an ophthalmologist from Ushuaia, Tierra del Fuego, from the group that spreads false information about the coronavirus, opposes the use of face masks and questions the isolation of healthy people as well as PCR tests. They also promote the use of chlorine dioxide as a treatment, the use of which is not authorized by the health authorities. Arriaga was tried in Tierra del Fuego for simulating a surgical intervention on a patient, in order to collect fees from the social work of the Argentine Navy.
