On the night of Thursday (19), the second debate between the candidates of the second round for the São Paulo City Council, promoted by Band and broadcast by Twitter.
In addition to criticism from the two opponents, Bruno Covas (PSDB) and Guilherme Boulos (PSOL) answered questions about the pandemic, the budget, daycare centers and public safety.
See what the candidates said was true, false or inaccurate:
There are still more than 23,000 mothers waiting for places for their children in nurseries.
Guilherme Boulos (PSOL)
We still have, according to the latest data, 6,600 children waiting for a nursery in the city.
Bruno Covas (PSDB)
It’s true for Covas and Boulos, but …
Currently, the queue for daycare centers in the city of São Paulo is 6,670 children under the age of four, according to data from the mayor’s office in September. However, the pandemic has reduced the demand for daycare centers as they are closed. In June, the line got closer to what the PSOL candidate says: 22,732.
Today, in cash, even during the pandemic, there are 19 billion reais, just over R $ 10 billion, free budgetary resources that are not tied to funds.
Guilherme Boulos (PSOL)
Estimates of the Municipal Court of Accounts say that of these R $ 10 [bilhões] to R $ 11 billion, only R $ 2 [bilhões] to R $ 3 [bilhões] we are committed to financing, Bruno. R $ 8 billion are free for investment. I am not saying this, it is the Court of Auditors.
Guilherme Boulos (PSOL)
True
City cash flow statement for September, available at site of the Secretariat of Finance of São Paulo, registers that there is R $ 19.7 million in cash.
There is stability in relation to the number of coronavirus cases in the city, there is stability in relation to the number of deaths.
Bruno Covas (PSDB)
False
According to the calculations of the moving average of cases and deaths in the city of São Paulo Twitter According to the criteria established by the press consortium, São Paulo is not in stability, but in an increase in cases and deaths.
Since November 12, the city has been accelerating cases and, since November 14, accelerating deaths.
The moving average is calculated based on the average of the last seven days, compared to the seven-day average of the previous two weeks. According to experts, this is the best way to assess the growth of the pandemic in a region. The increases can be seen in the following graphs:
Surveys and censuses have yielded worrying data, for example: 25% of children live with people over 60, the most vulnerable group. 40% of the population is asymptomatic, but that figure is 60% in children.
Bruno Covas (PSDB)
Truth
According to the serological survey carried out with children and adolescents in the city of São Paulo, 25.9% of public school students were quarantined with the elderly. And 64.4% of the students who tested positive for the new coronavirus were asymptomatic.
He kept the hospital closed during the coronavirus pandemic. The Sorocabana da Lapa Hospital. Whoever is from Lapa knows what I’m talking about: one open floor, seven closed. Hospital da Brasilândia, which started in government before his and Doria’s. You failed to deliver at the hospital. Only 12% of beds are open due to coronavirus.
Guilherme Boulos (PSOL)
Imprecise
The Sorocabana Municipal Hospital, in Lapa, had an Ambulatory Medical Assistance (AMA) in operation since 2012, and other units for low complexity procedures since 2016 on the first two floors.
The five upper floors remain closed, and the City Council has opened 33 new beds for the treatment of covid-19 only in the two floors already used and for low complexity cases. The Sorocabana Hospital Defense Committee criticized the management for not making full use of the hospital, to the detriment of the construction of field hospitals.
The Brasilândia Municipal Hospital, which Boulos said was not delivered, partially opened in May. The city government inaugurated 20 ICU beds and 16 exclusive infirmary for the treatment of covid-19. There, the hospital should have 305 beds and the 36 actually delivered represent 12% of the total.
He did not receive the city council with a leak. OR [Fernando] Haddad left R $ 5.5 billion and R $ 4 billion free for you and Doria, you were his substitute.
Guilherme Boulos (PSOL)
True, but …
The values are approximate. According to the municipality’s accounts, the administration of Fernando Haddad (PT), prior to that of Doria, left the City of São Paulo with a cash position of R $ 5.34 billion, of which R $ 2, 19 billion were Short-term expenses payable.
This means that the toucan government seized the city with R $ 3.15 of financial sufficiency. In fact, the sum of R $ 7 billion was already mentioned by Doria in 2017, still mayor, but when referring to the income predicted by the Haddad administration, and not to cash.
Ricardo Nunes, perhaps many people do not know him. He has investigations in the Public Ministry, suspicions that people in his group receive overvalued income from accredited nurseries..
Guilherme Boulos (PSOL)
The deputy of the Covas ballot, Ricardo Nunes (MDB), is linked to managing entities of nursery schools that made transfers of public money to companies investigated for being front companies. The Civil Police investigates whether these companies are used to issue cold and overvalued banknotes.
After the same accusation in relation to his vice in a previous debate, Covas defended Nunes saying that Nunes does not respond to a judicial process, which is also true, because he is still being investigated.
