Vice President General Hamilton Mourão (PRTB) declared today that he will receive the coronavirus vaccine if it is shown to be “efficient and effective.” “No [se for] the one who will get sick later. I’m old right? It can’t be easy, no, ”he joked.
The vice president’s position contrasts with that of President Jair Bolsonaro (without a party), who is waging a political war that involves actions to combat the pandemic and has always said that he will not be immunized. The government official opposes the mandatory vaccination process, an issue that was analyzed yesterday by the STF (Supreme Federal Court).
In the trial, the Court ruled that the authorities can determine the obligation, but the use of police force or any repressive act to take the citizen to the vaccination post is prohibited. On the other hand, states and municipalities can impose sanctions on those who do not adhere to immunization. These sanctions must be defined by law by Legislative Assemblies and City Councils.
Live yesterday, Bolsonaro said that the STF’s decision may be “harmless” (harmless) and affirmed that the government will not determine measures against those who do not want to receive the vaccine. However, this does not guarantee that the states and municipalities will follow the position of the Federal Executive.
For Mourão, there is an overstatement of the controversy over whether the vaccine is mandatory or not. According to the vice president, from the beginning, Bolsonaro “affirmed that no one will forcibly grab anyone to vaccinate.” In the general’s opinion, the result of the Supreme Court ruling only confirms this position.
“That the vaccine is mandatory was something that was decided a long time ago. There will be people who will not be vaccinated. Even in yesterday’s vote for Minister Barroso, he made it clear, ”he commented.
“Now, after we can make the vaccine available to the entire population, the measures will even occur at some point … for example, yellow fever. The public service itself. In the Armed Forces, for example, for to enter you have to present the certificate of some vaccines, this may happen in the future, but this is normal in our lives. “
