It’s amazing, but it was already predictable.
The vaccine has not yet arrived in Brazil, the Ministry of Health is more lost than a dog in a day of change, but in São Paulo a group of prosecutors already anticipated skipping the vaccination line.
The Attorney General of Justice, Mario Luiz Sarrubo, supported the initiative and offered to “personally try to present this request to the state government.”
The excuse that their excellences give is beautiful, as Hebe Camargo would say:
It is not a question of selfishness in relation to other careers, but taking into account above all the classmates of the first grade, who work with the public, attending the public and other activities in which social contact is extremely large and is a part of our day to day. day, ”says the letter from promoter Roberto Barbosa Alves, who requested that the category be included in one of the first priority stages of vaccination against covid-19.
“How beautiful!” Sportscaster Milton Leite would say when someone stepped on the ball.
It is not about selfishness, medical promoters, but a blatant privilege that you are asking for.
Picket season is open
If fashion becomes fashionable, why not include in the list of exceptions also the honorable judges, all the employees of the forums, the journalists who cover the hearings and trials, the garbage dumps of the courts, the military police who guarantee your safety and the waiters at the cafe?
In the Corporate Republic of Brazil, where everyone claims equal rights and privileges, similar requests will soon appear from officers of the Armed Forces, parliamentarians, ministers, presidents of state, servants of the Three Powers and all the categories that have been preserved in the reforms labor and social security. .
A report by Daniela Araújo, in Folha, informs that the request to skip the queue was made at a meeting of the Superior Council of the Public Ministry, on November 24, and is included in the minutes published on the institution’s website.
As determined by the Ministry of Health announced this week, vaccination against the coronavirus must begin with health professionals, people over 75 years old, indigenous people and people over 60 years old and who live in nursing homes or psychiatric institutions.
In which of these cases can prosecutors of any age be included, who retire before the INSS group, have free medical assistance, assistance for everything and can travel in official cars with a driver?
All they had to do was call a strike
What they want, therefore, is to simply skip the line, as they say in the popular ones, and give a banana to mere mortals who do not have access to the governor.
Note from the São Paulo Public Ministry includes prosecutors in the “sectors of the population most vulnerable to covid-19, both from a medical and social point of view” and guarantees that it will comply with what is determined by the health authorities.
The prosecutors only failed to comply with the schedule of the Ministry of Health and decreed a strike for the category.
More vulnerable than they are the millions of inhabitants of Brazil’s slums and streets, vendors who spend their days serving the public, teachers in schools on the periphery, domestic employees and all those who depend on public transport to work. , when they have work.
Cover on face
Reading this news this morning in Twitter, I felt a slap in the face.
With 72 years and 56 working as a journalist – this is, indeed, a high-risk profession – I will wait my turn in line, in the second phase of vaccination, which still no one knows when it will start in Brazil.
If we had a government, nobody would dare to sign a letter like this from the prosecutors, but I have no doubt that they will succeed.
I thought that no one and nothing else could outrage me, in the face of so many daily atrocities.
I apologize to the readers for your outburst, but I can no longer remain silent.
Life that goes on.
