The long list of personnel vaccinated outside the parameters contained in the schedule of the national Ministry of Health continues to grow.
This Friday,
Clarín
confirmed that dozens of university students, many of them militants of groups related to Kirchnerism and under 30 years of age, were vaccinated with the vaccines of the province of Buenos Aires.
All of them
fulfilled tasks as telemedicine operators in the so-called
early care
CeTep
for Covid-19 consultations, supervised by the Buenos Aires Ministry of Health, in coordination with
29 national universities within the province
, plus the Faculty of Exact Sciences from the University of Buenos Aires, which joined the agreement.
Sources in the province of Buenos Aires confirmed that the young people were vaccinated for being
"workers who are engaged in the health operation within the framework of the Covid
.
"
They confirmed that there are at least
160 vaccinated
among all the study houses that joined the program since, they argued, they perform "a key task: tracking and monitoring the close contacts of those infected, which is why they are considered personal health".
Before the consultation of this medium about why they were vaccinated if they do not do field work and their functions are linked to telemedicine, they added that "vaccination corresponds to them as they are personnel of the Covid health scheme of the province of Buenos Aires."
And they highlighted differences around the scandal over the VIP Vaccination that was installed in the Ministry of Health, which
Clarín
revealed
and led to the resignation of Ginés González García as minister.
"Their vaccination was not done in any 'VIP vaccination'
, but they were registered on the website of the province as
'non-UTI health personnel'
and they were given a random appointment," expressed provincial sources.
The Province also maintained that the vaccinated carried out coordinated tasks with the national universities in which they study, all based on Buenos Aires soil, except
Exactas
de la UBA, where this medium was able to confirm that
at least 43 young people were vaccinated
.
This scheme was also repeated in the universities of Quilmes and Lanús and it would have been deepened in the rest of the houses of study.
The
telemedicine centers established by the provincial Ministry of Health
operate in a large number of national universities, among which the National University of La Plata (UNLP), Tres de Febrero (Untref), Hurlingham (Unahur), the Arturo Jauretche (UNAJ);
that of Lanús (UNLa);
that of the West (ONE);
that of José C. Paz (Unpaz);
that of Lomas de Zamora (UNLdZ);
that of Quilmes (UNQ);
that of Almirante Brown (UNAB) and that of Mar del Plata (UNMDP).
In most cases, they were young militants from different groups linked to Kirchnerism, including La Cámpora.
Exactas
de la UBA, meanwhile, formally adhered to the agreement on September 28, but since mid-year it has been providing telemedicine services with young people who signed up for the different calls.
All
activity is carried out in Pavilion 1 of Ciudad Universitaria, that is, without direct contact with Covid-19 patients
.
They took a series of courses and take shifts of four hours, three times a week, according to a student told
Clarín
.
Internships are paid.
They are mostly under 25 years old and militants, although there are also young people who have signed up as volunteers without being affiliated with any political space.
