In Fernando de Noronha, the presentation of false tests of the Covid-19 has turned on the yellow light in the administration and, on the night of this Thursday (29), as we anticipated in the Folha Folha column of this Friday (30), four tourists They had decreed preventive custody, following a complaint made by the prosecutor of the Public Ministry, Flávio Falcão.

The group entered the inspection radar after disembarking on the island, with an examination on the last day 25, outside the protocol. The four tourists are from Araguaína, in Tocantins, and were arrested by the civil police in the archipelago for falsifying Covid-19 tests. The preventive detention was ordered by Judge André Carneiro de Albuquerque Santana, in response to a request, while we were singing the stone, from the Public Ministry, represented by the prosecutor Flávio Falcão.

In the court decision, tourists were charged with the crimes of document forgery, use of a forged document and criminal association. According to official information, the visitors disembarked in a private jet last Wednesday (28), with the exams collected on 10/25. As the protocol requires that the examination be carried out the day before departure, the tourists were quarantined until the results of the new tests carried out on the island were released.

At the time of collection, at the inn, they refused to hand over the samples, claiming that they had undergone further tests on the same day of departure and that they were awaiting the results. Therefore, the material was not collected. This Thursday (29), they presented the results of the supposed exams they would have done, but the dates did not coincide.

Next, we alerted the PE Integrated Health Surveillance Center, which activated the Tocantis Integrated Health Surveillance Center, where the laboratory where the tests were performed is located. When reviewing the original records in the laboratory, it was found that the collection date, in the examination presented by the tourists in Noronha, had been adulterated to conform to the protocol for entering the island, ”explains the superintendent of Sanitary Surveillance of the archipelago.

However, the most important thing is to preserve people’s lives ”.
