Brazil’s President Bolsonaro: I ‘Won’t Take’ COVID Vaccine, Congress Won’t Make it Mandatory

'Forcing people to take the vaccine or say that who doesn’t take it cannot get a passport, have a public job, that’s dictatorship', the Brazilian president said.

December 1, 2020

President of Brazil Jair Bolsonaro stated firmly last week that he would not be taking any COVID-19 vaccine that his country may approve and that he was “sure” that Congress would not make such a vaccine mandatory.

“I’m telling you, I won’t take it (the vaccine),” he said Nov. 26 during a “subjects of the week” press conference. “It is my right.”

“And I am sure that Congress will not create difficulties for whoever doesn’t want to take a vaccine,” he added.

“Forcing people to take the vaccine or say that who doesn’t take it cannot get a passport, have a public job, that’s dictatorship,” the Brazilian president went on to say. “Whoever defends that is a dictator, or a false dictator that is willing to do business with the lives of others.”

Bolsonaro also criticized the use of masks to combat the spread of the virus, referring to them as a “taboo” that needs “to fall.”
