In the first place,
Chiquita
gave an interview with Luis Novaresio (56) on radio La Red and began by talking about the scandal involving the Ministry of Health over the VIP vaccination program.
"I am surprised, with displeasure.
I think they have not realized the damage they were doing but, they would not have done it.
They would not have put themselves in evidence," she said.
"I
'm going to get vaccinated this week, because I'm over 80.
I'm a little scared because the other day I saw a young doctor, who had been vaccinated in Capilla del Señor, and then he had terrible tremors and his head hurt So
I suggested a bit,
"she added worriedly.
While her grandson, Nacho Viale (40) clarified on Twitter that "it is not yet the turn" although she is already "registered to receive it."

returns "twice a month"
since she does not want to "work so much."
So her granddaughter, Juanita Viale (38), who replaced her throughout 2020, will continue to lead the other broadcasts.
"
Juana amazed me, I was unaware of those conditions of her
. I always saw her in my house or in hers funny, fun, charming, but one thing is to be with family and another, to face the cameras.
I think it is wonderful, the revelation of the year and the most beautiful woman
, "he told Novaresio.
In addition,
Chiqui
said that she is going to celebrate her birthday with an intimate meeting with no more than 15 people, all family members.
And she confessed: "I have become very nostalgic, evocative, and
I wonder how I have reached this age
. I have never imagined reaching 94 years old and I remember it with great emotion, joy and also with admiration because
I have never lowered my arms
and when I say that I have given my life to this profession it is true ".
"
At this age I should not be working and yet I myself said I want to go back
even one day a week because
it makes me good to work
...", assured the host, who also launched: "
I want to die working
."

Regarding the absence of her twin,
Goldie
, who died on May 1 of last year, the diva said: "
It is the first birthday that I have passed without her
. Since we were born we were always together. Sometimes I was in Punta del Este and she I was coming or I was going to be with her. The question was to be together on February 23 ... today
I'm going to miss her a lot but she's in heaven, it's fine ...
".
Then, Novaresio asked him about the death of Diego Armando Maradona (1960-2020).
"
Poor Diego, I think they let him die ... it
has been very murky, strange, the environment, everything ... one reads and says 'how they did not assist him'. He was a very important person and has been very cruel to the family, Claudia (Villafañe) and the girls.
An ending that he did not deserve, he should not have died
, he was a young man, "he replied.
Mirtha also opined on the death of Carlos Menem (1930-2021) that occurred on February 14 last.
"He
impressed me a lot
. He was a person who behaved very well with me. When I was banned and could not work in a leather clothing parade, in Punta del Este, he sat next to me and said: '
look Doña Mirtha, The day I am president you will go back to work, to television
. 'And indeed he was president and they hired me on Channel 7 and I restarted my career, "he recalled.
"He was very nice and the only person who when the program ended went to the kitchen and thanked everyone who had served him," he added about the presence of the former president at their lunches.
