In the last hours, a rumor emerged that, this Friday afternoon,

Mirtha Legrand would

be vaccinated against COVID-19.

And the controversy was generated because it was rumored that the diva, who will turn 94 next Tuesday, was going to be treated at home, something that is not allowed.

The truth is that Mirtha, in an exclusive dialogue with

Clarín

, denied these versions and stressed that although she is predisposed to give herself the vaccine to combat the coronavirus, she does not want any type of privilege over any citizen.

In that sense, the

Chiqui

confirmed that she will sign up to be vaccinated and that she will not receive the dose at home: "It is not true. Absolutely!

I will go to get vaccinated where it corresponds to me. Without any privilege !!!

I waited patiently that announce the vaccination to people over eighty ... ".

And beyond the information that emerged about her, who is a public person, she assured that it should not be a controversy that adults of a certain age can receive vaccination at home.

"

In truth, the elderly should be vaccinated in our homes,

" he said.

At present, according to active and current legislation, vaccines are only applied at home and without a shift to those older adults who reside in nursing homes and meet the requirements of patients at risk.

For his part, Legrand should go to a vaccination center corresponding to his address to sign up when they register the shift list for those over 80 years of age.

For his part,

Nacho Viale

, grandson of the mythical host, denied the versions through a statement from the producer StoryLab broadcast on the networks.

The producer, in the same vein as his grandmother, assured that the driver will sign up to receive the vaccination "when possible."

"We deny that Ms. Mirtha Legrand will be getting vaccinated on the day of the date at her home. As of 2:00 p.m. when the registration opens, Mirtha Legrand will be signing up to be vaccinated when possible since she falls into the category +80 When the shift is assigned, he will attend his vaccination accordingly, "they clarified in the statement.
