247 – The Butantan Institute and the São Paulo State Department of Health issued a note on Wednesday (21) against Jair Bolsonaro’s statements against the Chinese vaccine in the fight against Covid-19 and on the withdrawal of the federal government in the purchase of 46 million doses of Coronavc.

The São Paulo institute, associated with the Chinese laboratory Sinovac, said that “the position [de Bolsonaro] goes against all the progress made so far in the negotiations ”between the federal and São Paulo governments, through meetings between the Minister of Health, Eduardo Pazuello, the Secretary of Health of São Paulo, Jean Gorinchteyn, the director of Butantan, Dimas Tadeu Covas, and the Governor of São Paulo, João Doria (PSDB).

The text questions the version of the Ministry of Health after Bolsonaro’s negative reaction, and recalled that Pazuello even stated that “the Butantan vaccine will be the Brazilian vaccine.” “The sentence is clear and does not even allow divergent interpretations, and the declaration of the Ministry that there was ‘a wrong interpretation’ was inappropriate,” the note reinforces.

Still in the note, the Butantan Institute and the Department of Health affirm that the “vaccine is safer than the others”, with a lower percentage of side effects in clinical trials so far, and hopes that the federal government will fulfill its commitment.

The Chinese Embassy in Brasilia responded, without citing Jair Bolsonaro, criticized Coronavac – a vaccine against Covid-19 produced by the country, and defended the alliance between the Butantan Institute and the Chinese company Sinovac.
