Deputy Minister of Health, Cecilia Loccisano, exposed Kreplak's lies

Mario Lugones's second-in-command shared a video of the Buenos Aires Minister of Health, who blatantly lied in a video

Deputy Minister of National Health, Cecilia Loccisano, replied to the lies being spread by Buenos Aires Province Health Minister, Nicolás Kreplak, who filmed himself and ended up ridiculing himself.

The Buenos Aires official recorded a video at the San Martín Hospital in La Plata showing a modern room and a state-of-the-art angiograph, claiming that it was purchased by Axel Kiciloff's government. "The Nation didn't contribute a single peso," he says without even blushing in the face of such a falsehood.

The deputy to National Health Minister, Mario Lugones, explained that this device was paid for by the National Ministry of Health.

"That angiograph was acquired by this Ministry and delivered to the provincial hospital in January of this year. What Kreplak proudly displays was paid for by the Nation," she stated.

"Let it be clear: we invest in Health and cover the bill that the provinces don't pay. The chainsaw isn't for hospitals; it's for the Kirchnerists and the unions that for years filled their mouths with speeches and emptied the health system," Loccisano added on the social network X.

"Today they have to lie, distort, and present others' achievements as their own in order not to lose their privileges," she concluded in a post in which she attaches the video with Kreplak's lies.

Mario Lugones: "We came to put an end to the culture of cheating and reward effort"

Health Minister Mario Lugones referred to the suspicious results of the National Medical Residency Exam, which led to a new call to take the exam because an official investigation revealed anomalous results in more than 200 exams.

"In recent days, we detected alleged irregularities in the National Medical Residency Exam. That's why we acted immediately: we opened an investigation, suspended the merit ranking, and planned a new exam for those who scored 86 points or more," he stated.

"As National Health Minister, my responsibility is to safeguard public health and ensure that those who are trained do so under fair, transparent, and merit-based conditions," he added.

"For this Government, merit and honesty are values to defend: we came to put an end to the culture of cheating and reward effort. Public health isn't built on privileges, but on commitment and transparency," the minister concluded.
