José Juan López Martínez / PSOE | During this pandemic and state of alarm, many hoaxes are being launched, it is evident that all of them harm society. The last one we have had to endure has been, a hoax in which there were statements by Minister Salvador Illa, where he said that the gyms could not be reopened on May 25, as had already been announced. It is sad to see the manipulation that is done from other parties and different media. What the Minister, Salvador Illa, says in his speech is exactly answering a question asked by the journalist Ana María Damia, from the Romanian National Radio, in which she quoted verbatim When can the big gyms be opened? that the Minister replied that for large gymnasiums, it was necessary to wait for phase 3.
It is clear in this way, that it does not affect the gyms in our neighborhoods, as long as they comply with security measures and with the capacity of a third of said local, as stated in the BOE in its article 42, published on May 16, 2020 What is my surprise when on Sunday, at approximately eleven o'clock at night, I receive several calls from different gym owners in our town and they convey their concern for this information, I repeat, manipulated.
But my surprise is even greater, when they tell me that the councilors of the Caravaca de la Cruz Government Team echo these hoaxes and affirm that the gyms cannot be opened. This is only done with the intention of damaging the government of the Nation, but what they apparently do not understand is that they harm these small businesses, which have already suffered and continue to pay the consequences of COVID-19 and, of course, they harm all users of Caravaca de la Cruz. I think it is necessary, that before we alarm, we make sure and contrast the information we receive and I also believe that the councilors of the government team must help and work for and for the citizens of Caravaca de la Cruz, because that is what they expect.
