On the morning of this Friday, March 19, Rodolfo Farfán presented his irrevocable resignation as Minister of Health. The official resigned after a part of the alleged list of “Vaccinated VIP” in Ecuador was leaked.
Farfán took office on March 1, after Juan Carlos Zevallos left the country, bound for Miami. He also resigned after he was inoculated, along with his mother, and several members of a private nursing home.
In his resignation letter, Farfán asserts that his resignation is for “strictly personal” reasons, but, unofficially, it is known that the highest levels of the Government requested his position, since a digital medium published the list of people who used their influences to access the vaccine.
Government ministers, former presidents, businessmen and even the wife of President Lenín Moreno would make up the list of V.I.P. that they would have been vaccinated with the first doses of the Pfizer vaccine, which arrived in the country.
