Bolsonaro said this morning that Laura will not be vaccinated. “If the president of the republic doesn’t care about the quality of life or even the life of his daughter, it’s a shame. If the president of the republic does not care about the life of his family, this is also a shame. He should not have condemned other children in the country to the same tragic situation in which he condemns his own daughter, ”criticizes Sakamoto.
V UOL News The Ministry of Health also reiterated information that the Ministry of Health should start vaccinating children aged 5 to 11 in January 2022 if the folder maintains its current recommendation after the end of public consultation on the matter.

The folder, run by Marcelo Keiroga, protects immunizations only with a doctor’s prescription. “Those who are wealthy can easily get the recipe online. Will the poor have to knock on the door of the clinic? Will they have to skip work? The son or daughter will not get the vaccine in the end, ”Sakamoto continued.
