Marcelo Longobardi harshly criticized the government's handling of the health crisis due to the coronavirus pandemic in Argentina and in particular the trip of the Minister of Health, Carla Vizzotti, to Cuba to learn details of the progress of the Abdala and Soberana 2 vaccines.
"We are entering the management of both the pandemic and the economy directly in witchcraft.
We are in witchcraft,
" said the host in the editorial of his radio program Miter.
The journalist referred to the
"vaccination crisis"
that Argentina is going through both due to the lack of vaccines against covid-19, as well as the slow rate of inoculation of the population carried out by the Argentine State.
"
We are entering into a fraud
, a witch thing, going to see the Sovereign 2 vaccine and Abdala from a country that is melted," Longobardi criticized.
And he added that the island is economically "struck down."
Vizzotti traveled to Mexico on Sunday with presidential adviser Cecilia Nicolini to closely follow the process of releasing the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccines, produced jointly with Argentina.

Later, both officials will go to Cuba to learn about the
progress of the Abdala and Soberana 2 vaccines
, in view of the possible collaboration in the vaccine production chain between the two countries.
The government indicated that, both in Mexico and with the island, experiences will be exchanged on the vaccination process against covid-19 and access to immunizations.
"If AstraZeneca has had problems getting supplies to package the vaccine, I don't want to think how they are going to do with Abdala.
Is Argentina going to buy vaccines for Cubans?
" Longobardi said.
At the time he finished his comment by assuring that
"vaccines are not the Cuban ones at this time in Argentina
.
"
Vizzotti and Nicolini will travel to Cuba to learn about the advances of the vaccines that are developed on the island, given the possibility of collaboration between both countries to
favor the access of the Argentine and Latin American populations to these vaccines
, as well as participation in the vaccine production chain.
In addition, they will hold meetings with their Cuban counterparts to analyze the situation of the pandemic in the region, exchange good practices in primary care services and continue to strengthen strategic relations of cooperation and friendship between both nations.
"Another witchcraft: the law of gondolas"
But Longobardi's anger in his
Cada Mañana
editorial was
not only focused on Vizzotti's trip to Cuba, but also targeted the Secretary of Internal Commerce, Paula Español, for the dissemination of a video on the gondola law.
In the first week of the # LeyDeGondolas we supervised its implementation.

"
The other witchcraft that we enter is the gondola law
, the Secretary of Commerce of the Nation measuring with a centimeter how much the yogurt jars measure and promoting that through the government's social networks," the journalist complained.
Finally, he was ironic when pointing out the behavior of Español to want to "lower prices with a rule", referring to the video where the official is seen walking through supermarkets with a centimeter.
