The policy has to give
a much stronger answer
regarding vaccines against Covid.
The privilege vaccination is
the worst subsoil
to which a striking number of the members of power descend.
But there are also other miseries that cannot be put aside.
And the effectiveness of vaccination operations is another important aspect because there are
failures in government management that cannot be repeated.
The
VIP Vaccination
is history
, where legislators Jorge Taiana, Eduardo Valdés or the journalist Horacio Verbitsky abused their privilege.
And the decision of the president, Alberto Fernández, was correct, who
quickly asked the
then Minister of Health, Ginés González García, to
resign
.
It was a necessary but not sufficient reaction to end the weakness of the policy in
using its portions of power
to be vaccinated before those to whom it corresponds by age, or by health risk.
The other leader who has a hard time passing the vaccine test is Axel Kicillof.
The governor has always been obsessed with
differentiating himself from the worst aspects of Kirchnerism
, especially when it comes to corruption.
And so far he has succeeded because he
can justify his personal wealth.
But, even if he tries and sometimes gets angry, it is more difficult to detach himself from the privileged use of the vaccine.
There was a
privileged vaccination of young people
in the coordinated plan between the province that governs Kicillof and thirty universities.
There are privileged vaccinations in Mar del Plata, San Nicolás and in towns in the interior of Buenos Aires such as Chivilcoy, Henderson or Navarro.
There are activists from La Cámpora who post their privileged vaccination photos doing the V and the same advantageous phenomenon is growing in some union headquarters.
That is why Beatriz Sarlo's complaint had such a strong impact, counting and showing the emails before the Justice that detailed
how they offered her,
on behalf of the Governor's wife, to
be part of an
awareness
campaign
of intellectuals and celebrities who were going to get vaccinated early.
As much as Soledad Quereilhac accuses her of "cackling lies", the essayist who
said "not with me" to Orlando Barone
on the K 678 program and who
accused Mauricio Macri of leading "a mediocre government"
in the middle of the electoral campaign, did not She is one of those who cowers.
Not even with a subpoena.

Before the publication of the news,
Clarín received criticism from Kicillof
, some of his collaborators and a good number of supporters who
tried to build trends on social networks.
It will be the Justice that decides if Sarlo's revelations constitute a crime or if it is, as she herself said, a lack of ethics.
The good position it shows in the polls was
not enough for Horacio Rodríguez Larreta to remain unscathed
from the risks of vaccination.
Last Monday's operation to vaccinate older adults in Luna Park
turned out to be a fiasco.
The image of retirees in the sun with 32 degrees of temperature showed that the prolific performance that the cast of Salud porteño had had so far, led by Fernán Quirós, could also fail.
Perhaps
the presence of some officials distributing water
among the victims would have helped.
But it seems that this proposal also did not find an echo in the City team, stunned these days by the negative impact of an unforced error.
In addition to being a scourge that torments all of humanity,
the coronavirus puts the
entire Argentine political leadership
under examination
.
Above all,
second-generation rulers
like Kicillof or Rodríguez Larreta.
It is possible that
one of them will rule the country
in the near future.
It would be constructive for them to improve the management of the State and the democratic distribution of the goods that belong to all.
