That TPTB in Argentina know they are in the midst of not a mild but a more severe pandemic and have decided that holding an election is more important than the safety of their citizens. IMO, this is reckless in the extreme and boarders on the criminal.

Delaying the deceleration of emergency until after the election shows just how little respect the Argentine government has for its people. Who in their right mind would hold an election in the middle of an influenza pandemic where by the very act of the people voting will place them into close contact with many people infected with the virus.

Who would do this? In 1918, the mayor of Philadelphia decided that it was politically more important to hold a War Bond rally and parade in that city rather than follow the advice of the cities public health officials who recommended against it. As a result, many became ill with the 1918 strain and died in that city. The choice made by the mayor resulted in the deaths of many thousands of his constituents.

What we may be seeing is a repeat of the old saw about those who fail to learn the lessons of history are fated to repeat them. What a shame. So shall ye sow so shall ye reap.
