The new banner against the Government had its epicenter in the Buenos Aires Obelisk, but it was also felt in the rest of the country. In Córdoba, there are honking horns, posters in cars and protesters with Argentine flags. The meeting point in the capital was the Patio Olmos area.

The slogans, among other requests, that were replicated in Córdoba and throughout the country were "independence of Justice" and "no to Judicial Reform" and against the extension of the quarantine due to coronavirus.

As reported by the Cordovan newspaper La Voz, before the national flag in the morning, the Self-convened Doctors of Córdoba marched again through the streets of the capital city, from Plaza Colón to the Ministry of Health.

The protest, with the overalls on, was for salary claims in the first place, but also with other slogans such as "mistreatment" and "squeeze" in provincial public hospitals.

"We are experiencing great stress in the health system in a time that deserves to join forces and work on common objectives. We are reprehensible anything that obeys petty interests."

The call, which was born on social networks with the hashtag # 17A and quickly had an echo among political leaders of the opposition, generated conflicting positions in Together for Change, among those who accompany the protest and participate in the mobilization, and those who tried to take off into space and warned of the risks that a massive concentration of people could generate.
