Almost five months after the start of the restrictive measures imposed by the Government to try to contain the advance of the coronavirus, from Together for Change the continuity of isolation policies by maintaining that Alberto Fernández " fell in love with quarantine, advised by scientists and doctors militants ".
Criticisms of the decision to extend the quarantine and the role of the expert committee that advises the Government were said by Adolfo Rubinstein, who was Minister and later Secretary of Health during the Government of Mauricio Macri.
Rubinstein participated this Saturday in a virtual meeting with members of that space, in which the president of the block of deputies, Mario Negri, and the economist and former Minister of Finance and Finance of the macrismo, Alfonso Prat Gay, were also present.
"The Advisory Council justified the political decisions already taken. Until the resource ceased to be effective when it became the only resource," insisted Rubinstein with his criticisms, within the framework of a virtual meeting called "Health, economy and politics in the Argentina to come ”.
In the same vein, Prat Gay expressed himself, who appealed to an example linked to the economy: "The Government fell in love with the instrument and, predictably, was trapped. They get angry when I say this, but it is like Menemism when he fell in love with the convertibility. We also see the same epic of the Malvinas war, "he launched.
In turn, Negri questioned that "instead of making a serene transition, to gradually emerge from quarantine, the Government thought that it was going to build, thanks to it, a political project ."

And he added: "Then he began to incorporate a huge menu of political, economic and social tension. That is why we demanded that they call us to the construction of the post-pandemic agenda and we have not been able to advance."
