  • Health.Illa passes in 48 hours from "congratulating" Madrid to asking for its lock with a report that does not show a substantial change in the data

The Minister of Health has appeared this Saturday to put maximum pressure on the president of the Community of Madrid, Isabel Díaz Ayuso, to tighten her restrictions to stop the expansion of the covid in the region.

In a press conference from Barcelona, ​​Salvador Illa has been very resounding in demanding that Madrid "review its measures" because there is a "serious health risk for its citizens and for the citizens of neighboring communities."

Salvador Illa has repeatedly called on the Madrid authorities to "take control; I urge them to review their measures."

With more forcefulness than on Friday, the minister has encouraged the Community of Madrid to confine the entire capital and those municipalities with an incidence of more than 500 cases per 100,000 in the last 14 days.

The minister has not responded to a question repeated by journalists: if he is planning to take control of Madrid by decreeing the state of alarm in the event that the situation continues to worsen.

He has not answered either yes or no.

But he has insisted that the Government of Spain "knows what to do" because "it accumulates the experience to do so since the first wave."

"The situation in Madrid is complicated, very serious and very hard weeks are coming; what you have to do is concentrate your energies," he said with a gesture and a very serious tone.

Illa has insisted that we are not facing "an ideological battle", but an "epidemiological one."

And he has demanded that the regional Executive "listen to scientists and experts", who almost unanimously also ask for a tightening of the measures.

With a severe tone, he warned: "We must take control of the pandemic in Madrid."
