Ricardo Rouvier is
not currently a member of the stable cast of pollsters of the national government.
But he joined it at some point and even had a fluid relationship with
Alberto Fernández
, when the current president was Chief of Staff of
Néstor
and
Cristina Kirchner
.
For this reason, the monthly reports of this sociologist and consultant are often looked at with particular attention.
Especially if, as in the latter, they bring
negative data
not only for the president, but also for his vice and even the Buenos Aires governor
Axel Kicillof
.
Rouvier's latest study included
1,200 cases
surveyed across the country between February 21 and 28.
That is, immediately after the
VIP Vaccination
scandal was uncovered
.
And the results of the survey confirm the hypothesis: that the controversy over privileges for the friends of power
hit the heart of the management
of the Frente de Todos.
Almost without nuances, the Rouvier survey shows a
drop in the images of the three main leaders of the ruling party
and in the evaluation of important management axes, such as the economic and health sectors.
The
36-page
report
begins with a detailed list of
"Conclusions"
that serves as a guide:

How the view on the management of Covid evolved.
- "At a time when the arrival of the COVID-19 vaccine and the beginning of the vaccination plan
began to represent a victory
for the national government, the existence of privileged people in inoculation came to light and this fact
collapsed the
image
recovery
that was beginning to be glimpsed. However, a little more than half of Argentines value the task carried out by the Executive to obtain and apply the vaccines, but the opposite opinion grew to almost 46% ".
- "The belief about whether
or not
the
President knew about
the existence of privileged people in vaccination is
divided in two
. But in relation to the knowledge that the current Minister of Health (Carla Vizzotti) had about these facts, the majority opinion (53% ) is inclined to consider that he was aware ".
- "51% of Argentines classify what happened as reprehensible and believe that
the President should have taken the measures
to prevent this from happening, 35% also sanction what happened, but think that they are difficult issues to control, while 6 % downplays what happened ".
