After leaving the Ministry of Health for the "VIP vaccination", Ginés González García reappeared after 20 days of silence on social networks, to express his joy at the improvement in the health of

Alejandro Collia

, Undersecretary of Management of Services and Institutes of the sanitary portfolio.

Collia - who is also being investigated and is accused along with the former minister for the "VIP vaccination" - had been admitted almost two months ago in the intensive care unit of the Haedo Hospital after contracting Covid and

came to be in a pharmacological coma.

​

"I am very happy because my friend and undersecretary Ale Collia hospitalized x COVID since January 27

overcame critical weeks

. He is very well," González García tweeted that he had not used that social network since February 26, when he had sent condolences for the death of another collaborator of his in the ministry, a week after being ejected from his position by the scandal.

I am very happy that my friend and Undersecretary Ale Collia interned x COVID since January 27, I have overcome critical weeks It is very well

"

I visited Ale Collia and today the rehabilitation began.

With the strength and commitment of always," Ginés added in a second tweet, published minutes later.

The scandal that led to González García's departure from the Health Ministry exploded on February 19, after journalist Horacio Verbitsky revealed in an interview that he had been vaccinated thanks to the efforts made by the now former Minister of Health.

Collia had been vaccinated with

Sputnik V on Thursday, January 21

at the Posadas Hospital.

Four days later he announced on his networks that he had covid, for which he was inoculated while he was still asymptomatic.

Visit Ale Collia and today the rehabilitation begins.

With the strength and commitment of always.

"On Thursday I applied the first dose of Sputnik V at @hospitalposadas. On Friday I had only very mild symptoms and I spent a normal weekend, enjoying knowing that we are building Health for All. We are already working 100% . Beware of the heat! "Collia had tweeted on January 25.

His health later deteriorated dramatically.

At the beginning of March,

the prosecutor Eduardo Taiano

expanded the accusations in the case of the vaccination scandal and precisely asked to impute Alejandro Collia, who at that time was going through a serious health situation. 

González García, for his part, comes from suffering an escrache in a restaurant in the City of Buenos Aires, which he had to leave due to the reaction of some diners.

On Thursday I applied the first dose of Sputnik V at @hospitalposadas.

On Friday I had only very mild symptoms and I spent a normal weekend enjoying knowing that we are building Health for All.

We are already working 100%.
