President Jair Bolsonaro said on Thursday (17), broadcasting on a social network, that he will not adopt a restrictive measure against those who refuse to be vaccinated against Covid-19, a disease caused by the new coronavirus.
On Thursday, the Federal Supreme Court (STF) decided by 10 votes to 1 to authorize the application of restrictive measures for those who refuse to be vaccinated. The plenary analyzed two actions that address the possibility that the federal, state and municipal governments decide on the mandatory vaccination of the population.
“The Supreme Court did not order that restrictive measures be imposed, the Supreme Court said that the President of the Republic, governors and mayors can impose. For my part, zero. Now, will all governors impose restrictive measures? I do not think so. I don’t want to lay hands on Burning for anyone. It’s hard for me. I don’t think so ”, declared the president in the broadcast.
“There is no mandatory measure next year. Zero. There is no vaccine for everyone. I do not want to be forced to take a position that goes against who I am. So, with due respect to the Supreme, took a measure anticipated “. Vaccine. He will not have it for everyone, “added Bolsonaro, in another section..
The president also stated that, in his opinion, the one who has to define whether or not there will be a restrictive measure is the federal government.
For Bolsonaro, the Legislative Power must take a position “on what is happening.”
“With all due respect to the Federal Supreme Court, he got into a split ball, my God. He didn’t need that. He didn’t need that,” he said.
