Health Minister Jaime Mañalich confirmed that Ministers Felipe Ward and Ignacio Briones are in preventive quarantine after meeting with the senators, Rabindranath Quinteros (PS) and Jorge Pizarro (DC); both confirmed in the last few hours with Covid-19.
During the daily balance of the progress of the pandemic, the Minsal holder confirmed the information and said that in the case of ministers, they are indeed in a pre-emptive quarantine. “They have to be done, at the most opportune time, a PCR test,” Dr. Mañalich said.
“The bottom line is that, between Monday and Tuesday, given the contact they had last week with the positive parliamentarians, it is that a new PCR is made – and of course they will – to define whether they consider themselves free from the disease or should be quarantined,” he added.
Mañalich further noted that they are working “radically” to find people who were in contact with the infected senators and thus control a possible outbreak in Congress.
Preventive quarantine on the PS bench
After the case of Senator Quinteros, the first contracted senator, the seat of Socialist Party deputies, was confirmed, it will voluntarily begin a pre-trial quarantine, and that all its members will take the PCR exam, for public health reasons.
“The aim is to prevent any possibility of contagion, both among officials working in Congress and among parliamentarians, after two cases of COVID19 contagion occurring in the Senate and which had some form of relationship with PS deputies and deputies,” Emol said.
