Just five blocks to mark the tension between the government of Axel Kicillof and the municipality of the provincial capital for recreational outings and the opening of sports activities.

The Chief of Cabinet, Carlos Bianco, confined to the "illegality" of those communal heads of the AMBA who grant these permits, and from the commune of La Plata responded this Wednesday that they will insist on enabling individual sports such as tennis, horse riding, golf , among others disciplines. Also with the "healthy outings" to parks and squares. 24 hours ago, Bianco had established the official position: "Whoever does not comply with the regulations of the Province is killing people." "It's that simple," summed up the official.

The chief of ministers involved in the questioning, in addition to Julio Garro, Jorge Macri (Vicente López) and Gustavo Posse (San Isidro), the suburban mayors who established greater flexibility of control in their districts. In the case of Posse, it innovated with the approval of tables installed on the sidewalks of some gastronomic establishments. Coffee type on the go.

In La Plata, the partial activity of the runners is verified, which caused so much controversy between the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires and members of the Kicillof cabinet, with the Minister of Health, Daniel Gollán, at the helm.

“Individual sports are very necessary and their contagion risks are very low . From the Municipality we will continue working to soon be able to start them up, with strict health security protocols ”, Garro transmitted via twitter. A certain harsh space was installed between the Government and the municipality, despite the geographical proximity. In fact, both administrations share territory. They differ in criteria.

The difference appears after the mobilization of 17 A in 170 cities of the country. In a diverse demonstration without organic leadership, or consistent leadership, but that the opposition considers representative of a social saturation where they would coexist from the exhaustion of quarantine until the rejection of the Judicial Reform. Bianco, the head of the National Cabinet, Santiago Cafiero, and the front line of the FdT attribute this street agitation to Cambiemos. Former president Mauricio Macri, in his FIFA office in Switzerland, with his expression of "enough to fear" after the march, contributed to the pro-government prejudice. And it served as a justification for the ruling party.

The criticisms of the three mayors of Together for Change were subsidiary to this alleged offense by "so many people on the street."

There are always bridges between both banks. For this reason, despite the warning, Garro needs to relax phase 3. It includes swimming, music therapy and opening of the local racetrack for ACTC practices.

In districts like Ezeiza, run by Alejandro Granados, golf is allowed. In San Isidro they process the operation of the racetrack, with television transmission and without attendance.

In the case of the provincial capital, Bianco explained on Tuesday that the "healthy outings" in La Plata were planned for parents with children but ended in general "allowed". It is verifiable by looking at one of the 320 green spaces available in the provincial capital.

Did the municipality raise the corresponding protocols to enable more activities? Clarín asked. “Newly Nation established with a decree the framework for the applications. We hope that the Province adheres to relax phase 3. Until now, this type of permit was granted in phase 4 and 5. We did not raise the process because as they were not contemplated in those phases, it made no sense to do so, ”they explained at the Municipal Palace.

The rush is because if the trend of infections does not change and until the vaccine arrives, the AMBA will not be able to have activity beyond those established. In those 35 districts there are 10 cases of COVID 19 per 100,000 inhabitants. In La Plata they are a little better, but there are still 1,000 infected with coronavirus per week.

He refers to the proposal in detail that begins to focus on the collective actor: “We cannot stay locked in waiting for the vaccine to be here, we don't know when it will actually be. The reality is that we have to learn to live with the virus ”, they complete the reflection.

Confront the apparent pressure of the provincial health system and the contagion chart that does not drop below 4,500 patients daily.

This drive seems to dispense with the rigor of the norm and moves away from the offices of the civil servants. The risk is social chaos. On one side and the other agree that individual and group responsibility for isolation, mask and hand washing behaves as the best prevention. Until the antidote arrives.
