“I DO NOT DOUBT THE INTELLIGENCE OR TRAINING OF MINISTER MAÑALICH”
Finally, Siches established that it is necessary “to clarify responsibilities and procedures in the management of the pandemic so as not to make the same mistakes in the future”, and stated that “we need to re-establish which health challenges of this magnitude should be addressed as a policy of State, independent of the government of turn “.
Dr. Siches commented on the former Minister of Health that “I do not doubt the intelligence or training of Minister Mañalich.” Based on that, she emphasized that “when you know what to do and don’t do it, you are effectively committing negligence.”
He added that it is not only that he has the technical knowledge, “but also here we had the recommendations since March. It was not only this lack of compass or impressions. There were entities and communities of experts gathered by the Government itself to be able to give recommendations These recommendations were not implemented, and in our opinion that was a poor implementation. “
Within the framework of the foregoing, Siches consigned as “controversial measures” the implementation of “Dynamic quarantines, new normal, early opening, herd immunity and COVID Card”.
