After the Ministry of Health announced a new quarantine for Valparaíso, your mayor, Jorge Sharp, said he did not understand the health strategy in this complex moment of the pandemic, when the active cases of Covid-19 at the national level are almost 29,000.
The communal chief estimated at The Cooperative Diary that the fundamental problem of the “Step by Step” plan is that “there is no coherence in the decisions made by the Government, there is no comprehensiveness and there is no transparency. “
“When I say there is no coherence, I mean that From Thursday, Concón will be in phase three, Viña del Mar will be in phase two, and Valparaíso will be in phase one. That is, a territory that does not have physical borders, but is a large conurbation area, will have three phases of the “Step by Step” plan being applied, with different sanitary measures, restrictions, limits and possibilities of moving. It does not make any sense“, he emphasized.
In fact, he questioned that until now the Executive assured that in the Valparaíso Region “decisions were going to be made from a territorially unified perspective; today he elbowed everything he said he was doing for a year“.
This, then currently Valparaíso and Viña del Mar are close to matching their number of active infections (679 and 655, respectively), and they also have similar positivity rates (12.9 and 10.7 percent).
“This does not mean that I am swelling or advocating for a specific health measure in Viña del Mar; what I am proposing is that it is not understood how the government is making decisions, and the problem is that we are not playing with figures, we are playing with the lives of people, who are tired of this serious uncertainty that has been generated in this time, “insisted Sharp.
