Washington DC -<\/b> El senador estadounidense de Oreg\u00f3n, Jeff Merkley, junto con siete colegas, presionaron hoy al vicepresidente Mike Pence, jefe del Grupo de trabajo sobre el coronavirus de la Casa Blanca, para garantizar que la respuesta federal al brote de coronavirus se base en hechos cient\u00edficos y recomendaciones de expertos, no en la pol\u00edtica. . <\/p>\n

La carta de los senadores llega en medio de informes de que la Administraci\u00f3n Trump ha ignorado repetidamente los consejos de expertos en salud p\u00fablica a favor de promover las prioridades pol\u00edticas de la Administraci\u00f3n. <\/p>\n

\n

"A medida que queda claro que el virus se est\u00e1 propagando m\u00e1s ampliamente en los Estados Unidos, es imperativo que las decisiones sobre c\u00f3mo manejar y tratar a los pacientes infectados se basen en la mejor informaci\u00f3n cient\u00edfica disponible y se gu\u00eden por consideraciones de salud p\u00fablica, no pol\u00edticas". escribieron los senadores en su carta.<\/b><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Durante la evacuaci\u00f3n de estadounidenses del crucero Diamond Princess en Jap\u00f3n, una cadena de mando poco clara condujo<\/a> a otras agencias federales que anularon el asesoramiento cient\u00edfico de los Centros para el Control y la Prevenci\u00f3n de Enfermedades (CDC), y los pasajeros evacuados fueron desviados de un Centro de Preparaci\u00f3n Nacional de FEMA en Alabama, despu\u00e9s de que el presidente Trump personalmente solicitado<\/a> que los pasajeros sean trasladados a un lugar alternativo. Adem\u00e1s, funcionarios de la Casa Blanca seg\u00fan se informa<\/a> anul\u00f3 a los funcionarios de los CDC que quer\u00edan recomendar que las personas mayores y f\u00edsicamente fr\u00e1giles se abstuvieran de los viajes a\u00e9reos comerciales, y el vicepresidente Pence se mud\u00f3 recientemente a centralizar<\/a> todas las comunicaciones a trav\u00e9s de su oficina, corriendo el riesgo de silenciar las advertencias de los expertos en salud p\u00fablica debido a la preocupaci\u00f3n por sus consecuencias pol\u00edticas o econ\u00f3micas.<\/p>\n

Los senadores tambi\u00e9n expresaron su preocupaci\u00f3n por la composici\u00f3n del grupo de trabajo<\/a>, que incluye solo seis de los 20 miembros con antecedentes m\u00e9dicos, e incluye varios asesores con estrechos v\u00ednculos con la industria farmac\u00e9utica que tienen un posible conflicto de intereses en la respuesta del gobierno federal al brote. <\/p>\n

\n

\u201cLa emergencia mundial del coronavirus puede ser el desaf\u00edo de salud y seguridad m\u00e1s importante que enfrente su Administraci\u00f3n. Elevar la experiencia en salud p\u00fablica por encima de los intereses pol\u00edticos es crucial para elaborar una respuesta efectiva y mantener la confianza del p\u00fablico en la respuesta de la administraci\u00f3n a la crisis\u201d. continuaron los senadores. <\/b><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Para abordar sus preocupaciones, los senadores pidieron al vicepresidente que aclare c\u00f3mo proteger\u00e1 las comunicaciones y el proceso de toma de decisiones de la interferencia pol\u00edtica, incluidos los detalles sobre el proceso de revisi\u00f3n de las comunicaciones p\u00fablicas y el protocolo para reubicar a los pacientes a trav\u00e9s de las fronteras nacionales o estatales. , as\u00ed como tambi\u00e9n c\u00f3mo se proteger\u00e1 el proceso de desarrollo de la vacuna o el tratamiento de los conflictos de intereses relacionados con los v\u00ednculos con las compa\u00f1\u00edas farmac\u00e9uticas.<\/p>\n

La carta es la acci\u00f3n m\u00e1s reciente de Merkley para abordar la crisis de salud p\u00fablica del coronavirus. Anteriormente, us\u00f3 su posici\u00f3n como miembro de alto rango del Subcomit\u00e9 de Asignaciones del Senado que supervisa la Administraci\u00f3n de Alimentos y Medicamentos (FDA) para luchar con \u00e9xito por $61 millones en fondos para la FDA<\/a> en el paquete de gastos de coronavirus $8.3 mil millones que el presidente Trump promulg\u00f3 como ley la semana pasada, y trabaj\u00f3 para aprobar r\u00e1pidamente esa medida como ley. Merkley tambi\u00e9n ha instado a la Grupo de trabajo sobre coronavirus para detener las pol\u00edticas de inmigraci\u00f3n que corren el riesgo de acelerar la propagaci\u00f3n de enfermedades<\/a>, presion\u00f3 a la Oficina de Prisiones de EE. UU. y a los principales operadores de prisiones privadas para planes detallados para prevenir brotes entre las comunidades encarceladas<\/a>, y lanz\u00f3 una p\u00e1gina web de recursos para los habitantes de Oreg\u00f3n<\/a> para acceder a informaci\u00f3n cr\u00edtica y actualizada sobre c\u00f3mo mantenerse a salvo.<\/p>\n

La carta tambi\u00e9n fue firmada por los senadores Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), Edward J. Markey (D-MA), Mazie Hirono (D-HI), Bernie Sanders (I-VT), Richard Blumenthal (D-NJ), Cory Booker (D-NJ) y Brian Schatz (D-HI).<\/p>\n
