On Saturday, while the assembly of the candidate offer went into a frenzy, the actor Luis Brandoni spoke on the radio:
"I know this does not look good, but I take this opportunity to say that they have not yet given me the second dose of Sputnik
.
"
Brandoni is
81 years old
and is one of the Argentines who have yet to complete the Russian vaccine scheme.
A
nonsense
that at that time did not concern those who were vying for a 5th or 8th place on the charts.
While the political negotiations to see who was going instead of who extended towards midnight, in Laferrere the blankets were spread on the dirt sidewalks to obtain food through
bartering
.
There a girl offered hair straighteners or a manicure service in exchange for
noodles or sugar
.
A package of these products costs
80 pesos
.
With 500 pesos in noodles, sugar or rice, there are people who leave a trade with a new haircut, a fixed bicycle and someone who changes the cables of the broken plug on the weekend.
Under normal conditions, services are worth more than food.
But now the conditions are different, and
without food you cannot live.

The reality of survival was making its way, at that time, in a suburban street called Comodoro Py, like the Buenos Aires avenue of the federal courts where other exchanges are woven and unwoven.
How many Argentines can fit in that journey of just 30 kilometers, between Retiro and La Matanza?
With the real economy in free fall and vaccines at the mercy of the will of the suppliers, the government put together its lists of unity, filing down everything except
mistrust
.
In the Province, Victoria Tolosa Paz is headed, who is accused by hard Kirchnerism of having lost an intern in La Plata against Florencia Saintout and having operated against the Minister of Social Development, Daniel Arroyo, when the overpricing scandal broke out at the beginning of his administration .
Arroyo survived the onslaught, but now leaves office to accompany, relegated, Tolosa itself.
It does not seem like a triumphant exit.
Clean and clean.
The second is Daniel Gollán, who until very recently was linked to Judge Violini's decision to release prisoners at the beginning of the pandemic:
“That plan was made because the people of Gollán said in Health that hospitals were going to collapse due to the coronavirus in prisons ”, he
recalls
someone who participated in the crucial meetings for that matter.
The prediction of collapse in criminal never happened, but
some of the prisoners who left wreaked havoc
.
However, the official who is credited with the intellectual patronage of that mass liberation is now candidate number two.
Clean and clean.
Just below appears Agustina Propato, Sergio Berni's wife, who last week threatened his own colleagues:
"If I go outside I'm going to give them a scare
.
"
Although until this Wednesday he was speculating with his own candidacy at the provincial level, he was paid with a bench for his wife.
“In the Province, Alberto Fernández cannot even order a coffee with milk”
, they heard Berni say during the negotiation, before a sand table that he set up in his bunker in Puente 12 to think about
whether he would continue in his position
.
Military thing: an
arena table
is a kind of miniature stage where generals plan their battles.
If Berni's name on the list was a provocation for Fernández (the Buenosairean criticizes him more often and with less contemplation than an opponent), his wife's name, how much does it attenuate that wet ear?
The President swallows toads but says they are oysters.
While Minister Frederic looks for how to weaken the expertise of the Gendarmerie that says that Nisman was assassinated -one of the objectives with which he came to power-, he sends handfuls of gendarmes to the suburbs to bypass Berni.
There are neighborhoods where security
depends on the rhythm of activity of the jet engines
.
Without filters.
That is why the neighbors no longer speak to the authorities, but directly to the thieves:
"If they come to rob here, we are armed,"
warn the parades in other towns of La Matanza.
It is a heads up between neighbors and criminals that
never ends well
.
In the campaign that begins -Beatriz Sarlo ironizes that the candidates only say that everything will be fine,
"as if they were New Year's cards"
-, there is a country that
asks for vaccines and food
, and that seeks to protect the bicycle without finish with
a shot
to the chest.
