La Brigada Motorizada N.° 24 “Huamachuco”, en la comuna de Putre, región de Arica y Parinacota, emitió un comunicado oficial respecto a la situación de salud que afecta a soldados conscriptos en la unidad, donde se informa sobre cuadros infecciosos de origen respiratorio que han sido detectados entre los jóvenes en instrucción.

Según el texto, durante la semana pasada, de un total de 245 conscriptos en instrucción, 45 presentaron síntomas del cuadro antes descrito. De estos, dos fueron trasladados al Hospital Militar de Santiago y cinco permanecen internados en el Hospital Juan Noé, con dos en estado grave.

Además, se informó que 38 soldados se encuentran en aislamiento en la unidad militar, bajo monitoreo médico constante.

Asimismo, en el comunicado del Ejército se señaló que se han implementado medidas preventivas adicionales, siguiendo las disposiciones de la autoridad sanitaria institucional, incluyendo el aislamiento preventivo del resto de los jóvenes en servicio militar en la unidad, con el objetivo de evitar nuevos contagios.

La brigada ha establecido una coordinación constante con la Seremi de Salud Arica, el Hospital Juan Noé y el Hospital Militar de Santiago para monitorear el estado de salud de los afectados, así como para realizar las pruebas de diagnóstico correspondientes.

Soldado fallecido

Esta situación se presenta días después de la lamentable muerte de un soldado durante una instrucción en la comuna de Putre, de nombre Franco Vargas. El conscripto presentó problemas respiratorios durante una marcha hacia el cuartel militar, recibió atención médica en la enfermería del predio de instrucción y posteriormente fue trasladado al Centro de Salud Familiar (Cesfam) de Putre, donde falleció.

Pese a la información oficial entregada por la Brigada Motorizada Nº 24 “Huamachuco”, la madre del fallecido, Romy Vargas, comentó a Radio ADN que las causas del fallecimiento serían otras según el testimonio de testigos presenciales.

Según el relato recogido por la madre del fallecido conscripto, Franco habría manifestado previamente no sentirse bien para realizar una caminata alrededor de las 5 de la mañana. Esto, mientras vestía con poca ropa, no apta para dicho horario y temperaturas.

En palabras de la madre de joven, hay alguien responsable de esta “negligencia”, un “asesino” de su hijo, apuntando a que “esto fue un homicidio”. “Solicitamos saber quién fue el cabo que se llevó la vida de mi hijo”, agregó.
