The unexpected death of
Eugenio Zanarini
, head of the
Superintendence of Health Services
(SSS) and who in the last year wove a
good relationship
with the CGT, put
on alert
to the leadership of the Peronist labor union and associations that are
not part of the cegetista leadership.
It is that his death opens the door to a
scenario long feared
by the unions: that Kirchnerism now seeks to
colonize
the body with someone of its own.
Moreover, for months the version was running that from sectors K wanted
Liliana Korenfeld to
land in the SSS
, former head of the organization during the presidency of Cristina Kirchner and "technical staff"
of the vice president's
extreme confidence
.
The conduction of the CGT with Alberto Fernández, in Olivos.
At present, and by Cristina's decision, the
"penguin"
Korenfeld works as general manager of the social work of the employees of the National Congress.
According to union sources, Korenfeld herself sought a few weeks ago to eradicate the fear of the unionists.
The former superintendent of Health Services assured Antonio Caló, head of the UOM, that
it was not in her plans to
return to the organization.
The metallurgist
shared
the data at the time with the small cegetista table.
But with the death of Zanarini, the
cegetista
ghosts
returned.
The official was found dead Tuesday at his home in the Caballito neighborhood.
I was in his bed
.
His driver found him, who after insisting with several calls forced entry to the house.
Everything indicated this Tuesday that he suffered a heart attack.
On December 31, he had had a heart attack.
On Monday, that is, the day before he died, he had been meeting at the Superintendency until around 5.30 pm with a head of the CGT.
To that union member he confided: "I
'm a little agitated, I can't be doing crazy things."
Of kidney Ginés
A man with the kidney of Ginés González García, Zanarini managed to remain in the SSS after
the expulsion
from the Government of the former Minister of Health due to the VIP vaccination scandal.
He was the last official who responded to Ginés who remained in the structure of the Ministry of Health.
"It was not a wedding, it was a normal thing."
This is how
a trade unionist
described to
Clarín
the relationship that the CGT had with Zanarini.
Although it seems little, it is a lot compared to the bond that the center has with Carla Vizzotti.
Since he took over as head of Health, last February, the central has
not been able to meet
formally with the minister.
They also have a meeting pending with Alberto Fernández.
Two heads of the CGT began this Tuesday to move to see if they can
finalize
that meeting as soon as possible.
It is that in the midst of the tension between the President and Cristina Kirchner for the continuity in his position of the undersecretary
Federico Basualdo
, in the union central they were wondering this Tuesday who will put the new superintendent of Health.
The unionists hope that it is Alberto F. and that he designates someone who has the
OK cegetista
.
"It is still early, but I bet that the President will elect someone
neutral
for Kirchnerism and in tune with us," said a hierarchical cegetista.
Beyond the assumptions, what is concrete is the fear in the unions of the eventual landing of a
bishop
of Cristina (or La Cámpora) in the SSS.
"
They are like a Pacman, there is a place they want to eat it for themselves,
" describes a union leader.
Another adds: “They are going to try to stay with the Superintendency, they always fight for power and space.
It is like this. "
And they completed: "We, of course, are going to try to
force him
to be a technician who represents the whole of the labor movement."
In the last hours, the name of
David Arauchan
, who from the CGT tried to locate, unsuccessfully, as head of the Super at the start of
Alberto Fernández's
administration,
was ringing again from the union side
.
Cristina already showed last year that she wants changes in the health system.
He spoke of
"rethinking it"
to achieve "a more efficient use of resources", which put
unions and prepaid unions on alert.
With the health system with a deficit of about $ 20,000 million annually, the command of the body that controls the social works is key to keeping the unions at bay.
Liliana Korenfeld, former head of the Superintendency of Health.
How?
Treading the distribution of funds.
It is just what Korenfeld did, in the management of Cristina.
It is a memory etched in the guilds.
