The newspaper Pagina 12 presents a debauchery with Paulo Guedes on the cover of his online version. The headline says:
“We do not want to become an Argentina,” says Bolsonaro’s economy minister.
Guedes is attacking Argentina, broken by Macri, his friend, due to the country’s withdrawal from joint Mercosur negotiations.
According to Guedes, Brazil will follow the path of prosperity. And Alberto Fernández, who has been in power for only three months, attacks him, as if he were guilty of the misery of the country that he inherited from the Macrista right.
But Page 12 makes his interpretation of the statement by the minister who lost control of the economy to General Braga Netto.
The newspaper says that Brazil will never be an Argentina because it has more than 4,000 deaths and almost 70,000 infected by the pandemic. And Argentina has only 192 deaths with 3,800 cases of contagion.
The number of those infected in Argentina is less than that of those killed in Brazil.
In Argentina, anyone who tries to evade quarantine can be arrested. In Brazil, everything is free.
Argentina has 4,200 beds in the ICU and yesterday only 142 were occupied. In Brazil, ICU capacity has already been exhausted in many states. In Rio, this afternoon 326 people were waiting in line for a place in the ICU.
The Brazilians die inside the ambulances in Rio, in Manaus, in Fortaleza, and they already predict the repetition of this scenario in São Paulo, in Recife, in Belém.
In the case of a pandemic, the reasoning could be the opposite: Argentina cannot one day pretend that Brazil continues to kill the poor, and even more so now with the uncontrolled plague.
