“I think it’s important to convey that there’s an element of very, very, very, very, very bad heart to what actually happened. It’s clear that, from a probabilistic perspective, it was very unlikely that it would have happened.”
If it was a consuelo, this sentence was uttered by the minister Oscar Puente in his interview on Spanish television on Monday, he would be emblazoned with his signature on the stones of 45 mistakes in the Adamuza accident.
However, I do not believe that this will comfort the families.
Point out the fact that the government will not pay equal attention to dealing with the exceptional nature of the matter in the country.
Scientific studies calculate that the episode of torrential downpours recorded in the province of Valencia on October 29, 2024 occurs in periods longer than 2000 years.
Meteorologists therefore estimated that 200 liters could be found on an average square of 770 on this day.
Don’t forget the word “muy, muy, muy, muy, muy mala suerte”.
Something similar could be decided by the prime minister, who was just alluding to fatalism to justify the derailment of trains.
“Unfortunately, tragedies happen in life, but that is not the same as responding to these tragedies. This government has responded by putting the victims at the center of its priorities, with empathy, efficiency, transparency and unity,” I said in Huesca. Pedro Sánchez last sunday
Accidents do “happen”, but if they happen in a way where public authorities are responsible for safety, these accidents are given names and names: those responsible for them.
For the most part, it is sarcasm that this person stands for copyright from “Si quieren ayuda, que la pidan”, capable of “empathy”.
Statistics in no way absolve anyone. Just because something is unusual does not mean that it is unpredictable, nor that institutions can act as it happens.
For this reason, there are logs, inversions, audits and contingency plans.
Ask the bad guy to focus on the flaws in the system causing the injury. It’s too comfortable a jacket. Politics should show less resignation and more return of affairs.
So Oscar Puente has a point and that Adamuz is probabilistically something exceptional, de mala suerte, “hugely extraño”. As is the minister.
