Paměť je sviňa. Ta fotka Babiše s Vojtěchem měla být důrazem na nutnost prevence. Že zrovna v brožuře VZP za prachy klientů, přestože zbývaly jen dva týdny do voleb, prý byla „náhoda“. Po strašlivém chaosu a vládním selhání Babiše s plnými hřbitovy následkem covidu doufala uherská kukačka ve ztrátu národní paměti a kvapně tlačila na jiná témata. Proto se prsila, že onko prevence je pro ni jak svatý grál. „Je treba lidí vystrašit, aby byli zodpovedný a nezanedbávali prevenci rakoviny,“ hulákal ten gauner v médiích. To samé před loňskými volbami po boku s plastickým Vojtěchem: zatočit s nárůstem nemoci měli za „nambr van“. Čas oponou trhnul. Tisíce vašich žen, příbuzných, kámošek anebo kolegyň, jež si ta zákeřná choroba vybrala a léčí se v naději, že mrchu přeperou, se ocitla bez léku. Tamoxifen, který jim v boji o život pomáhal, tu zmizel z lékáren. A zas je to jak s rouškami za covidu s Babišem u vesla: pro změnu zoufalé ženy se musí uchýlit k vzájemné pomoci a „čenžovat“ se zbytky od jiných, jimž zbyly po léčbě. Je po volbách a ticho po pěšině: hrudníček Bureše, co se dmul přísliby, jak „raka“ vymýtí, splaskl jak píchlá meruna. Zatímco Vojtěch, Babišův poddaný ze želé, zajistil léku jen tisíc krabiček, když k současným desítkám tisíců nemocných žen tu každý rok přibude 8 000 nově diagnostikovaných. Vypláchnout si „hubu“ od lží tu dávno nestačí, vy hyeny u moci. Až se ty ženy, které jste nechaly ve štychu, nakonec uzdraví, přijdou vás z vládnutí nadobro vykopat. A my jim pomůžem'! #Prevence #Zdraví #Politika
Další vlna veder je tady, ale na jakékoliv vládní opatření lidi, obce i kraje dál jen marně čekají. Je potřeba systematická prevence a jasný plán. Podobně, jako tomu je při hrozbě povodněmi.
