Cervera will
not resign in spite of the demand of the groups, that they even accuse
to try to hide legionella to him
*
It recognizes only one delays in informing to the workers and it is asked
" which has been the error " * the opposition accuses to him of " distortion"
and demands its substitution to recover confidence in the system The advisor of Health of the Navarrese Government,
Santiago Cervera, will not resign in spite of the unanimous demand of the
rest of the groups of the Parliament, that accused of " distortion
" and " great power to him " in their attitude in front of the outbreak
of legionellosis in the Virgin Hospital of the Way, that has been settled
with six deaths. Cervera solely admitted errors in the transmission of
information, mainly by the delay in warning the workers of the center,
but it assured, on the other hand, that " we have known to approach the
crisis in time record ". Batasuna already has resented/displayed a motion
to demand to Miguel Sanz the cease of Cervera. Awaited appearance of advisor
of Health, Santiago Cervera, in Parliament confirmed that it does not have
any intention to present/display his resignation after the happened infectious
outbreak in the Virgin Hospital of the Way, that has caused nineteen patients,
six of died them. The
opposition unanimously demanded its resignation to the position, mainly
by the delay in informing into the case. In fact, some spokesmen, among
them Felix Puyo (Batasuna) and José Mari Aierdi (EA-PNV), interpreted
that the advisor could try to hide this outbreak deliberately, and only
presented it in view of the dimension that reached. In his chronological story of
the facts, the holder of Health admitted the Parliament that took six days
in communicating the existence of legionellosis to its president, Miguel
Sanz, seven days to the public opinion, and ten to the workers of the Virgin
Hospital of the Way. In order to justify it, he indicated, among other
things, that Sanz was of vacations the previous week, that was not advisable
to alarm to the citizenship without knowing with exactitude the origin
of the infection, and that the same happened with the group. In this last
scope, he alleged in addition difficulties to fix the meeting by the put
in festival of the 15th of August. "
the prevention was correct " The advisor solely rectified
his performance before the professionals: " he had been very advisable
as rapidly as possible to anticipate the information to the workers of
all the estates of the hospital, since in other occasions we have demonstrated
the fact that doing thus he allows it one better understanding of the situation
and the determined measures. He has not acted themselves this way, and
it is a circumstance that moan and by which I request excuses ", Cervera
said. However, immediately afterwards it added that " there is no evidence
" of which legionella " constitutes a specific labour risk ", and remark
in addition that with silence " did not increase a single thousandth the
probability to I infect for anybody ". In his justifications on tardanza
in informing, the maximum person in charge of Osasunbidea dropped that
certain confusion by factors existed because " on the paper all the measures
of prevention were correct " or that the 8th and the 9th of August, a day
after extending the alarm, did not take place new cases. Nevertheless,
altogether it assured that the detection of the center " was developed
in a very brief time, in only six days ", long before which it has happened
in Huelva or Murcia, according to it emphasized without mentioning that
the per centage of loss of life also was much smaller there. Like colofón to its intervention,
Cervera was asked: " they request the resignation to Me, but which has
been the error ". In its opinion, " we have known to approach the crisis
in time record, and that one was my first responsibility. From there, in
the informative thing, which you they want ", it added. Its
intervention was reprimanded by all the opposition, that asked for its
resignation in block. For Elena Torres, spokesman of the PSN, " the Navarrese
health security cannot be more time in his hands. You would have to go
away to your house so that the confidence in her can be recovered ". From Batasuna, Felix Puyo extended
the responsibility. " Since you are not able to resign, so that the Navarrese
society recovers the credibility would have to make him resign ", emphasized.
With this objective, this group presented/displayed yesterday a motion
already so that the Parliament insists to the president, Miguel Sanz, to
stop to its person in charge of Health. Puyo not only attributed to Cervera
" oscurantismo ", " self-sufficiency " and " frivolity ", but " cynicism
" to even include in its intervention a gratefulness to patients and relatives
when so far already it has in his table a complaint.
As much Puyo as Aierdi (EA-PNV)
pointed the possibility that Cervera had wanted to hide the outbreak "
Preferred not to inform in case had not died and it was possible to be
hidden ", Aierdi asked before emphasizing that " it has been put in risk
to a great part of the population ". Isabel
Arboniés, of IUN, thought that " to say that nobody was in danger
not to inform it is much to say " and assured that " the affluent information
given nonalarm ". The
opposition reproached in addition to Cervera the breach to the Law of Labor
Risks, stressed by Miracles Blond, or the filtration of the file of the
patients to make see that they had serious previous ailments already. One Week without information
made public According
to the chronology of the crisis offered by Santiago Cervera, the alarm
already spread in the Department the 7th of August, but the information
later transmitted one week, after taking place the two first deaths. These

left in evidence the little
