Colombia is the country of improvisation, and we can easily notice this with this pandemic. Since the pandemic started; The management of the Duque government has been late, not to say null. The lack of correct management in the areas that had to be executed with great urgency and efficiency was not done. That is where we wonder! Why didn't they buy 32 testing machines for covid? That would allow for results with a maximum traceability of 24 hours and not 48 or 60 hr as Min Salud say, but in reality they are 120 to 148 hours as patients complain about the health system say, in Superhealth. "And that's when they do the tests." Now the security protocols are a complete clown in many cities of the country; And they are a clown because simply and simply you do not have the information in optimal times, a positive patient comes to know that it is positive from 48 to 120 hours, all because the 32 machines that would allow to have the information in optimal time of 24 were not acquired hours, I do not say it I say it health professionals. "Colombian Medical College." Information in optimal times is vital to be able to maneuver correctly. But if we are talking about human lives.
But the most worrying thing is that the government, we are not seeing it managing a treatment or even the vaccine itself for covid 19. What will this group of improvisers be waiting for? And if the health outlook is bleak, wait for security to continue.
Duque since he campaigned was a show men, That of the heads, dance, and the guitar. It was the omen of a person disengaged from things, they killed 9 young people in a town in Nariño. And this presidential semoviente; Instead of going to apologize for its disastrous failure, it went to offer stadiums and works. As if it were not the function of a government to guarantee the development of the territories. Well, thank you for offering what is the obligation of the state to supply! "By a miracle he did not take sweets over there, to sweeten the loss of families."
And of economy; Better not even talk, but hey a couple of disturbing data. Carrasquilla when he made that monstrosity of the national development plan; Project a barrel of oil at 64 dollars, it will be that this genius had not noticed; Which, at that time, Rosnetf and Aramco were in racy discussions. And by those two starting to fight they were going to affect oil prices dramatically. But the solution of this government is more worrying, because they plan to burden ordinary people with more taxes, exacerbating more crisis when what has to be done is the opposite and there we have 2 options.
First: Lower taxes by half, removing tax exceptions so that the state collection rate is not harmed. In this way, the level of expenditures of the lower strata would have a relief and purchasing power would increase somewhat.
Second: What the geniuses of the government are going to do, which is to charge the family basket with more VAT, and to top it off they gave a loan of 350 million USD, to rescue Avianca that 50% of the domicile is in Panama and 50% is in United States for having been acquired by an American airline.
Conclusion: The citizens of Colombia can NOT be more screwed, with such inept administering the country and only paying campaigns to upload their image. Hopefully the remaining 2 years will go by, but flying.
