The 79-year-old artist, who already has the three required doses of the vaccine, highlighted the importance of having the complete immunization scheme and strongly criticized the Government of Jair Bolsonaro for the obstacles it wants to impose so that minors among the 5 and 11 years can freely access antigens.
“We are fine and we attribute that to the fact that we are vaccinated. The important thing is that who can, should be tested, and above all, that everyone is vaccinated with the three doses. The pandemic did not end and the new variant is very contagious, “he indicated.
“It is unacceptable that the federal government hinders the program for the vaccination of children approved by the National Health Surveillance Agency (Anvisa, regulator). May the Brazilian State free itself from this Government, ”snapped the artist, winner of several Grammy awards.
