On Saturday, Lewandowski called for the withdrawal of two lawsuits asking the federal government to present the vaccination plan after the plan was submitted to court. The trial was scheduled to begin Thursday. At the request of the rapporteur, the president of the STF, Minister Luiz Fux, postponed the trial.
The proceedings began to be judged in November in the virtual plenary session, a system in which the ministers cast their votes without the need for a meeting between them. Fux interrupted the trial so that the case could be examined on the physical floor, which during the pandemic meets by videoconference. Now, the trial should take place only in 2021, as the STF will hold the last session of this year before recess next Friday.
Plan in dispute
Lewandowski had already voted to order the government to submit a detailed plan within 30 days to guarantee the supply of Covid-19 vaccines. Days later, the federal government presented a preliminary plan to immunize 109.5 million people.
Then, the “National Plan for the Operationalization of Vaccines against Covid-19” was published, signed by the Ministry of Health, with the forecast of immunizing 51.4 million people in the first half of 2021. However, the text does not presents a date for the start of work.
More than 30 researchers who participated in the development of this plan released a public note on Saturday, indicating that they did not have access to the final version of the document before its publication.
