Jorge Lanata started Journalism for Everyone Box with a harsh editorial for the situation of those

stranded abroad

and against the restrictions imposed by the Government.

His criticism pointed to Kirchnerism, the panelist Úrsula Vargues and the former Minister of Health, Ginés González García.

"Did you realize that a few months ago it

started to be wrong to leave Argentina

, that people are criticized because they leave the country? At first glance it seems that it is a small issue, right? It affects few people.

There are 45 thousand people stranded abroad,

"began Lanata, this Sunday night, during his PPT editorial.

He continued: "For the government they are tourists. It is a lie, because half of them are. The other half are people who went for work and 6% of that total are people who broke up, who went to live elsewhere. criticize going out. We are a little crazy, right? ".

"The reasoning is a bit sick. What does it matter what they went out to

. We wouldn't have to explain a damn thing

, that is, what would be the problem if they left? Since when can't you go out? Since when do you have to explain? Lanata wondered.

In this sense, for the host of Journalism for All,

the fault is never "theirs" (in reference to the Government), but rather "the others."

He listed: "The runners, merchants, night parties, schools and now those who leave here, for example those who go out to get vaccinated. Wow, 'traitor to the country' the guy who went out to get vaccinated ... Is everyone crazy? "

Úrsula Vargues, tweeter K

Next, Lanata pointed to the Kirchnerist ex-fan and tweeter Úrsula Vargues, who had published some controversial posts regarding Argentines who traveled abroad.

"You left? You

thought you were superior. You don't go to Argentina

,

"

Vargues tweeted.

And also on the number of stranded: "45,000.

The fat that is left over

."

You went?

You thought you were superior.

You do not enter Argentina.

"

What is on your mind, Úrsula Vargues?

 " Lanata pointed out and developed, "They went

crazy

. What is happening is very strong. We are getting used to the fact that

certain things are normal and they are

not

. 

It is not right that one can have freedom to get out of here or to go in or

do whatever the hell you want

. "

He continued: "

Or now the Kirchnerists do not travel?

There is something perverse in this whole story. They put us in a position to explain as if we were guilty of something and the worst thing is that those who have to explain do not explain. Ginés (González García), for example, he appears in a video eating tapas in Madrid, do you understand? And it is he who has to explain, among many others ".

45,000

The fat we have left over.

Days ago, the former Minister of Health was seen with a glass of wine in a Madrid bar and the video went viral on the networks.

He also met with Hugo Sigman, who temporarily resides in Madrid.

The Malbrán machine

In another section of his monologue, Lanata said that five months ago the Ministry of Health of the Nation bought for

Malbrán

a state-of-the-art equipment that allows analyzing 3,000 samples at a time in 24 hours to diagnose covid and identify variants such as

Delta

.

"It

paid for that equipment almost a million dollars

and announced with great fanfare at the beginning of February that Argentina was the first country in the region to acquire it. But it is not yet operational. It lacks robotic arms to be able to collect large samples. scale, put them in the machine and perform the genomic sequence in a very short time. And those arms are bought separately from another manufacturer, "he illustrated.

He added: "What did they say from the Malbrán? That the tender to buy the robotic arms is still being done, and that it takes time. But (Carla) Vizzotti: if there are exceptional measures, and of necessity and urgency every day:

¿ Didn't they foresee an emergency

purchase to buy these missing arms from the team? "

To size, Lanata said that if this machine - called

CovidSeq

- were in operation today, in less than two days the samples of all travelers returning to the country could be processed, to see if they bring the Delta variant.

The "stranded"

That last reference from Lanata was an allusion to the

"stranded" Argentines,

who were left in that condition after the Government

reduced to 600 the number of travelers

that can enter the country per day.

The measure was taken to face the arrival of the worrying Delta variant to the country.

"Another who is still abroad and will not be able to return to the country is

Ginés (González García)

. Poor, he is still in Spain, he is going to have to go live at the bottom of Sigman's house," he joked around the former Minister of Health of the Nation, who left his post after the scandal of the so-called

"VIP Vaccination".

He continued: "The government does not want to talk about stranded. What are they then?

People on forced vacations?

"

Parrilli and Stevie Wonder

Lastly, Lanata indicated that the

Instituto Patria

launched a "militant training" course for the legislative campaign, which consists of online classes on "hegemonic media, taking care of oneself in the networks and military public health."

He finished off after passing the fragments of a video of Oscar Parrilli: "Parrilli giving a strategy course is like a driving course given by Stevie Wonder. If he is the star, imagine who the others are."
