A former chief of staff to Chilean lawmaker Felipe Camaño has taken over as regional health secretary in Los Lagos, prompting questions about the appointment.

The criticism centers on her place of origin. The new official comes from Ñuble, not Los Lagos, and her appointment follows the controversial departure of Evelyn Brintrup 27 days earlier.

She is a nutritionist with master’s degrees in public health and public management. Before taking the post, she worked as chief of staff to Camaño, who represents District 19 in Ñuble.
