The director of the Center for the Coordination of Health Alerts and Emergencies, Fernando Simón , has gone viral in the last hours due to some unfortunate statements about the victims of the coronavirus. "It is not the same for a 95-year-old person to die than a 20-year-old," he said at his last press conference.
“It is not the same, and older people will forgive me because this is hard to say, it is not the same for a 95-year-old to die than for a 20-year-old to die . And we are still in that situation of risk, less and less, but it is true that the impact on young people is much less, but the probability exists. Therefore, we have to put up with it a little bit longer, ”said Simón.
