The Vice Minister of Health, Cecilia Loccisano, highlighted the latest measures that allow expanding the free sale of medicines.
“Let’s see Milei, since you are so handsome, deregulate the medications”was the declaration of Cristina Kirchner this Saturday, within the framework of the 11th National Health Meeting held in Rosario. The accusation provoked a rapid defense of the current health administration in one of its management bastions: the free market.
The person in charge of responding was Vice Minister of Health of the Nation, Cecilia Loccisanowho through his social networks wrote: “Do what I say but not what I do.” “After governing Argentina three times, destroying the market with regulations and obstaclesNow you realized that removing regulations is good for Argentines? “We celebrate, it’s never too late.”
After the chicane, the official assured that “This government is advancing in the deregulation of the drug market. He has already warned the governors that they can import the remedies they consider, lowering the costs of the health programs of each province.” He also mentioned that we found a Remediar Plan without data or records of its distribution and use. From 2021 to 2024, $30 million in expired vaccines was wasted due to poor planning. “In 2023 alone, 4 million vaccines were destroyed, including those for covid and influenza.”
In contrast, he highlighted that “Decree 70 provides that generics be prewritten in the electronic prescription, with the possibility of suggesting a brand; we put an end to the historical triangulations of Social Works that were left with contributions from workers; We expand over-the-counter medications and seek to have them displayed on shelves. In case evidence was missing, the price of medicines is below the CPI“. “We came to deregulate and offer clear rules of the game. We came to rebuild and reorganize a health system that they left destroyed,” Loccisano concluded.
