"We are receiving
16,000 calls
to emergencies per day, when they are usually between 5,000 and 6,000. We work in a coordinated manner between the State and the private sector, but it is
essential to take
quick
measures
because the growth of cases is very high," he said. .
And he closed: "Argentines and Argentines, let us be conscientious. Let us be in solidarity and solidarity. Let us respect the care measures while the vaccination progresses. It is time to take better care of yourself again."

consultation

more drastic measures

Minister Gollan, against the opposition
This Saturday, the Minister of Health of the province of Buenos Aires, Daniel Gollan, returned to polemicize this Saturday by denouncing that the referents of Together for Change are betting on
"chaos, that the entire health system explodes
.
"
"These are people who are betting heavily on chaos, that everything explodes, that the health system explodes," the Buenos Aires official warned.
Speaking to FM La Boca, Governor Axel Kicillof's minister pointed, without mentioning her, against the president of PRO, Patricia Bullrich.
Gollan said that Bullrich represents the "toughest sector of the opposition" and regretted that the messages he broadcasts on Twitter are "aggressive" and "are in line with
an attack on public health
."
