With the justification of a “deserved rest”, this is how the cartoonist Rictus, from El Financiero, titled his work, which he also shared through the same social network and in which he captured López-Gatell in a folding chair sunbathing .

And with the characteristic phrase of the Undersecretary “Stay at Home”, the monero Rapé from Millennium, was inspired to create his cartoon, in which he exposes the official in an inflatable float.

However, the one who was more risky in his creation was the monero Chavo del Toro, from El Economista, since he portrayed López-Gatell with little clothing, since on the beach where he was captured he is characterized by being a nudist.
