he Ministry of Health This Wednesday he will agree to do it again Mask is mandatory In all health centers, in the face of the escalation of respiratory viruses. Sources from the Ministry indicated to ACN that the executive branch headed by Pedro Sánchez plans to move forward with this measure through Article 65 of the Harmonized Actions in the Field of Public Health and Food Safety. They also confirmed that the government would approve the measure whether it approved the autonomous regions agreement or not, after no consensus was reached at the meeting held by the parties on Monday. We must remember that in Catalonia this procedure has been mandatory since last Friday.
The ministry also explained to ACN that the autonomous regions have been given 48 hours to submit contributions that will be studied. But if there is no other different agreement, “it is necessary to protect the citizens and communities that have already imposed the measure.”
In statements to Cadena SER, Minister of Health, Monica Garcia, emphasized that after the 48-hour deadline and the proposals that the autonomous regions can submit, the will is to find consensus, but the state executive has in its portfolio the use of the Article 65 instrument and plans to do so. Don't use it.
At that time he asked PP to stop doing this “denial” and what “clear up”because during today's Regional Council, some autonomous communities governed by the people showed themselves in favor of the mask measure while others from the Popular Party government also showed themselves against it.
The minister stressed, “We are scientific and mature enough to develop a transitional measure that has scientific support and good acceptance among citizens.” He also considered that the mask could help prevent “seasonal epidemics” such as influenza “that lead to the suspension of operating rooms, the postponement of surgeries, or pressure on the health care system.”
