“How are we going to tell a family that the ICU bed that should have been for their grandfather or uncle is occupied by a congressman who, being able to do so, refused to work from home and went to meet in person, “said Correa, who is a doctor by profession.
The liberal congressman added: If you are going to meet in person, then those who shout in person that sign an informed consent in which we resign from the ICU bed if we get sick in Congress. ”
