In life there are moments in public administration when the cold statistics of the files unexpectedly intersect with the most intimate fiber of humanity and, for which Governor of Chubut Ignacio Torresthe conclusion of this year 2025 represents not only an administrative compensation, but what itself defined as a “Sign of Fate”. The coincidence is cinematic, to say the least: the same year the president announced his paternity, the province he leads was the site of a medical miracle that defies biological odds.
The “Tritwins” phenomenon, a case in 200 million
The birth of three identical girls – twins or twin triplets – is an extremely rare event. While some records speak of one case in 100,000, the governor went further and specified the extent of the medical challenge in Chubut territory: “It is an unprecedented case of triple twins, it is one in 200 million.”he remarked in a recent interview with Fontevecchia modeon Net TV, Radio Perfil (AM 1190).
Simultaneous with scientific curiosity, this represented birth a litmus test for the province’s health system. It was a highly complex operation that at other times would have had a foreseeable goal: a medical plane to the federal capital.
Authoritarians don’t like that
The practice of professional and critical journalism is a mainstay of democracy. That is why it bothers those who believe that they are the owners of the truth.
Over the decades, Argentina’s interior has suffered a structural deficiency that Torres summed up with a sentence as crude as it is real: “In the interior there is always the dilemma that the first medical provider is Aerolíneas Argentinas.” The logic of referring every complex case to Buenos Aires not only uproots families at critical moments but also reveals the insecurity of services. However, this paradigm has been broken.
These triplets were born in the New World Hospital with high complexity of the province, a project that seemed unattainable at the beginning of Torres’ term in office: “We had the opportunity to inaugurate this highly complex hospital with a maternity clinic and it was utopian to think that we would be able to do it if we took over the management. To be able to look after it here and ensure that it runs well is a…” Pride that avoids reference to Buenos Aires“said the President.
According to Torres, it is It is impossible to separate political success from emotional impact. The fact that he became a father for the first time this year gives him a different sensitivity to the success of the medical team and the well-being of the already discharged mother.
In addition, the governor did not hide how this combination of factors affected him: “To add all the elements as a sign of fate, to end the year in the hospital that was also inaugurated and where I also became a father for the first time, mobilizes a lot of thoughts at the end of the year“.
