“I express my gratitude to the vast majority of the Argentine people for their commitment and support for the policies we implemented to rebuild a federal health system, with more equity, access and quality,” González García wrote at the beginning of the tweet. In the remainder of the letter, the former minister listed a number of measures that were taken following his assumption as holder of the health portfolio on 10 December 2019. These include strengthening laboratories, the COVID-19 prevention campaign and organizing “friendly and plural debates” with scientific societies. On the fact that it led to the president of the nation asking for his resignation, González García wrote, “I would sincerely regret that such a misunderstanding could delute a management that gave a strong impetus to the reconstruction of the health system.”
