After the traffic chaos generated last week by the “health checks” carried out by the province of Buenos Aires, the district’s minister of government, Teresa García, confirmed that this Saturday “there will be checks on all accesses. The retainers were located at the entrances of Panamericana, Avenida General Paz, Acceso Oeste, and the Buenos Aires- La Plata Highway generated long lines and delays, in addition to several criticisms, mainly by the Government of Buenos Aires.
Garcia noted: “One does not want to become a sanctioner of personal behaviors. But if the provincial government had not exercised control over access, the opposition’s view of many means and even citizenship would have been ‘where is the Government that is not controlling this unbankment’.” In the Ministry of Security, Bonaerense had defended the controls as a deterrent that sought to “reduce mobility”, something that was ratified by Garcia in dialogue with El Destape.
In another sense, García explained that the objective of the Bonaerense administration is to reduce the current number of contagions by half. “The number of 24,25,000 infected daily we have across the country has a percentage impact on the use of the health system,” he said.
