After spending a few weeks in Florida, United States, the River Plate campus will have to complete a week of isolation as part of the measures taken by the Government to try to prevent the
arrival of new strains of coronaviruses
to the country.
According to the Sports Minister, Matías Lammens, the River team
cannot exempt itself from this step as it happens with other athletes
, who have special permits to travel and avoid isolation. "River will have to do an isolation. I spoke with the president (Rodolfo D'Onofrio) and with the vice (Jorge Brito), with whom I have a good relationship and I informed them that the Ministry of Health alludes that
the campus did not go to an official competition
Besides, they
were not in a bubble in the United States,
"said the Minister of Tourism and Sports.
River has already announced that it hopes to complete the isolation period at the Hotel Faena in Puerto Madero and that the players will travel by bus to train at the Ezeiza site. This possibility of moving from their place of isolation is not open to the rest of the citizens who return from abroad, who must stay at the address they indicate when they return.
Why will River have to comply with
the isolation that officials
who travel on official missions
do not do
?
In recent weeks, several officials such as President
Alberto Fernández
, the Minister of Health,
Carla Vizzotti
, the
Minister
of Economy,
Martín Guzmán
, the Chancellor,
Felipe Solá
or the President of the Chamber of Deputies,
Sergio Massa
, traveled to different countries and they should not have been subjected to isolation.
This happens because current regulations - an administrative decision by the Chief of Cabinet of April this year - establishes
a universe of people who are exempted from quarantine
after returning from abroad.
Among them are
truckers and aircraft crew members
in the exclusive exercise of their activity; the
diplomats and officials
who fulfill an
official mission
authorized by Migrations or Chancellery and
athletes authorized
by Migrations, as with the national football team is playing the Copa America in Brazil and that he said himself
Lionel Messi
this weekend week, they remained isolated in the bubble of concentration.
In the Directorate of Migrations, which depends on the Ministry of the Interior and
Florence Carignano
leads
, they point out that all the definitions about who is exempt from quarantine are the responsibility of the Ministry of Health.
In the Vizzotti Portfolio they reported that these exceptions apply "only to those traveling on an official mission, and provided they have informed them."
