López-Gatell asked to denounce people who “skip the line” for the vaccine

The Undersecretary of Health disapproved that there are people who do not respect the vaccination order

On Saturday night, the Undersecretary for Prevention and Health Promotion, Hugo López-Gatell, published on his account Twitter a message where He condemned the violations of the vaccination schedule that have been denounced in the media and social networks.

“Whoever skips the line or takes advantage of his position to facilitate someone to be vaccinated when he is not due, is committing an arbitrariness that harms the entire country,” the official wrote.

In addition, he asked the public that, if they find any case of influentialism or disobedience to the program, they report it. “These anomalies must be reported based on evidence,” he requested.

The statement came after Alba Patricia Batani Giles, councilor for Morena in Acapulco, bragged on her social networks to have received the COVID-19 vaccine before many doctors who are in the first line of response to the disease.

In addition, he pointed out that “the vaccination didn’t hurt me hahahaha”. After the dissemination of the images, the mayor began to receive several comments from users who pointed out that she should not receive the vaccine as they were not medical personnel who are in contact with COVID-19 patients. Moments later, he deleted the post.

Another more recent case was that of director of the Tabasco Women’s Hospital, German Arturo Corzo Ríos who also put other members of the administrative staff on the immunization list.

After making the matter known, the governor of Tabasco, Adán Augusto López Hernández, gave instructions so that the principal be removed for violating the protocols.

Before Corzo Ríos, Dr. José Rogel Romero, director of the “Lic. Adolfo López Mateos ”from Toluca, who facilitated the application of the antigen to him and two of his relatives.

In addition, in Guanajuato, federal employees of the group Servants of the Nation received the immunization. Since they are not part of the medical response staff, social media users claimed to be given a place in line.

Faced with the disagreement, the Moreno senator for Guanajuato, Martha Lucía Mícher Camarena, defended the staff and her party when he wrote that “some people have not understood that we are not equal to the PAN, the PRI, or the corrupt people who brought down the country. It is false that there is an ‘agandalle’ of vaccines, its application is carried out in accordance with what is established by the National Coordination of the Health Strategy ”.

He explained that the brigades of “Operation Roadrunner”, which is designed to deploy trained personnel to vaccinate to other regions of the country, “they receive the vaccine by providing services in COVID hospitals.”

Each brigade is made up of 12 people. Four from the Ministry of Welfare, four from the Ministry of Defense and the Navy, two from the Ministry of Health and 2 volunteers. “Nothing improper is being carried out, or anything that has not been authorized. Those on the front lines are being vaccinated against COVID-19, ”he wrote.

Undersecretary López-Gatell verified the claim when he wrote on his account Twitter what “It is considered that the Servants of the Nation who coordinate the brigades of Operation Roadrunner will also receive the vaccine against the SARS-CoV-2 Virus.”

What members of the medical community have demanded is not that they vaccinate the vaccination assistants, but rather that they prioritize them over the doctors, nurses, orderlies and quartermaster personnel who have worked in COVID wards for almost a year.
