In lengthy coverage of Anvisa’s decision to order the suspension of the Coronavac tests, “Jornal Nacional” harshly dealt with President Jair Bolsonaro’s performance in the case. Beyond the news, the newscast explained its opinion about what happened this Tuesday (10).
“The announcement of the suspension of the tests of Coronavac, one of the vaccines against covid, ended up provoking outrage at the obvious politicization of the matter by President Jair Bolsonaro,” said Renata Vasconcellos.
“In a social network, Jair Bolsonaro celebrated what he thought was a failure of the Butantan Institute vaccine and said it was his victory. In fact, the cause of the volunteer’s death had nothing to do with the vaccine. It was another sad case of suicide. “
The vaccine is being developed by the Chinese laboratory Sinovac in association with the Butantan Institute, linked to the São Paulo government.
The newscast spent 24 minutes on the subject, a huge amount. It left room for politicians from various opposition parties and scientists to criticize the government. He listened to representatives of the government of São Paulo and, also, of Anvisa.
“It was not the first time that Jair Bolsonaro attacked the vaccine developed in São Paulo. It was not the first time that the president put political interests above science,” Renata said at another point in the coverage.
