“A confession of parties, relief of evidence”, was the first conclusion that deputy Marcela Hernando delivered when referring to the interview of the former Minister of Health Jaime Mañalich, in El Mercurio and that was known this Sunday.
For Dr. Hernando, the strategy implemented by the government since the arrival of the Covid in Chile is evident. “The minister expressly states in his interview that he was the supreme director of the pandemic, because the president himself anointed him as such. He was even the ministerial coordinator and therefore, all decisions, including those of other ministries that were related to the pandemic, passed through him ”.
“But the former Minister Mañalich forgot that he worked with other professionals from the ministry itself, with much more experience and knowledge than he in handling situations like this. It was also forgotten that Chile is a country that works and that there are scientific societies, professional associations and even parliamentarians that deal with public health and knowledge of healthcare networks, we have vast knowledge, “added the former health authority.
Marcela Hernando also indicated that “all these professionals felt violated, passed out, ignored by the ex-minister’s stubbornness and they made it known at the time, they were not and we were not generals after the battle. They were front-line soldiers whom he did not want to listen to at any time ”.
The public health expert stated that “it was these professionals who immediately began to visualize the inconsistencies and even the manifest intention of using the figures at their discretion, and that based on these manipulated figures, they made decisions on isolations, pseudo quarantines, traceability loud for the media, but ineffective as a sanitary tool and finally, the well-known search for herd immunity. It is enough to remember the sad episode of the “immunity card”, the plateau and many other health aberrations for which he will have to answer to the public “.
Deputy Hernando stressed that in the former minister’s statements “it is absolutely clear that the strategy passed through the president and through him, therefore, let him say now that” I do not feel responsible for the dead. It seems to me inappropriate for a person who claims to have the guts to assume their responsibilities ”.
“For this reason, it is inappropriate and unpresentable to want to publicly blame and crucify an official like Johana Acevedo, attributing to her a responsibility that is proper to the Minister of State,” said the congresswoman from the Antofagasta Region.
Finally, regarding Mañalich’s accusation that “there is an effort to destroy Piñera’s legacy” with the constitutional accusation, Deputy Hernando refuted his sayings, noting that “here nobody wants to destroy the President’s legacy, because there is no legacy to destroy. What we are looking for is that those who have to assume their responsibilities assume them. There are 16 thousand deaths of which almost half did not even die in hospitals or clinics. Where were you? Why did they pass away? What does the minister’s traceability tell us? ”.
