The scandal for those vaccinated with privilege grows day by day and at the same time the anger of those who had been complaining about the management of the Frente de Todos deepens.

Attentive to this situation, opposition leaders who were hesitant to join the protest called on the networks for this Saturday decided at the last minute to join.

They will join those who accompanied previous mobilizations and had already announced their presence in the

tenth "banner"

since

Alberto Fernández

took office

.

In this way, for the first time

the heads of the three parties that make up Together for Changes

will take to the streets to demonstrate against this Government.

The first to sign up was

Patricia Bullrich

,

Mauricio Macri's

delegate

at the head of PRO.

He was followed by

Maximiliano Ferraro,

who will head a column of the Civic Coalition after receiving the permission of

Elisa Carrió.

And in the last hours,

Alfredo Cornejo

confirmed that he will join the march in Mendoza, although he clarified that he will do so in a personal capacity and not on behalf of the National Committee of the UCR, which he presides. 

The central call will be in the format of a caravan and will have its epicenter in Plaza de Mayo, starting at 5 pm, although similar demonstrations are announced in localities of the GBA and the main cities of the interior.

The axis of the claim is the request for the

resignation of all those responsible

for the privileged vaccinations that operated both in the Ministry of Health and in health centers in different provinces.

Until now, the President has tried to contain the scandal through a single dismissal: that of Minister Ginés González García.

Carrió made public his decision to support the march this Thursday, when he said in TN "I would like to go, to claim and ask for

an Argentina with a moral identity

."

It thus revealed a revision of the frontal rejection of the street demonstrations that it maintained throughout the past year.

The co-founder of Cambiemos will not go, citing health reasons, but will issue a supportive tweet.

And he delegated to Ferraro the assembly of a party party.

"For our dignity, our consciences, for equality before the law and the end of any privilege,

" the civic chief tweeted.

The deputies

Juan López, Mariana Zuvic and Marcela Campagnoli

joined in

,

among others who will support him in the Plaza.

Cornejo's situation is more complex, because the rest of the radical referents consider it inappropriate to stir up street fury against Alberto.

"He will go, but he does not summon," they clarify near the former governor.

He will be on the corner of San Martín and La Peatonal de Mendoza along with another deputy,

Luis Petri,

who this Friday told Clarín that "we are marching against the privileges of the Government and the VIP vaccination of

Ginés and Vizzotti

."

They will meet there with the macrista

Omar de Marchi,

head of the local PRO and vice president of the Chamber of Deputies.

Due to macrismo, the initial convocation of Patricia Bullrich and other leaders of the hard sector, such as

Fernando Iglesias and Waldo Wolff,

was joined by the deputy

Silvia Lospennato,

a former monzoist now close to Cristian Ritondo.

"The head of the bloc is part of the moderate wing of the PRO, along with

Horacio Rodríguez Larreta

. The head of the Buenos Aires government is on vacation in Buzios and did not speak. 

In the networks they especially celebrated the announcement of the presence of

Luis Brandoni, an

icon of previous "banderazos".

The actor and radical militant has just

recovered from the Covid

and will be together with the former head of Public Media,

Hernán Lombardi

, who uploaded the photo of both taken from a float in front of the Obelisk to call for the march.

Another famous person who will be present is the dancer and choreographer

Maximiliano Guerra,

close to the hard sector of the PRO.

"What mismanagement. They inoculated each other by stealing essential vaccines and violating protocol," he

said.

His presence was also anticipated by the former Minister of Agroindustry of Cambiemos, Luis Etchevehere, and the former prosecutor Pablo Lanusse, who curiously was a civil servant in the early days of Kirchnerism.    

From the ruling party,

Aníbal Fernández

-interventor in the Río Turbio deposit- came out to disqualify the march of 27F through the networks

: "The politicking rude and coup plotter

again in the streets to pierce the management of Alberto Fernández

.

"

The Frente de Todos will have its

revenge

on Monday, when it mobilizes towards Congress in support of Alberto.

The legends of the call for the protest this afternoon in front of the Casa Rosada range from

"Against privileges"

to

"Let everyone go"

, through "Argentina awakens" and "The tolerance of the people is over."

Most politicians adhered to the one that says

"In defense of what belongs to everyone

.

"

This is what Bullrich did, who will go to the Plaza with a reference from Buenos Aires,

Patricia Vásquez

, promoter of the

"Patricia Presidente"

campaign

.

Bullrich y Cornejo is listed among the presidential candidates of the opposition.

Both march and plan to challenge Rodríguez Larreta in 2023.
