The congresswoman from Peru Libre, Margot Palacios, presented a motion with the purpose of calling before the plenary session of Congress representatives of the laboratories that manufactured vaccines against COVID-19 to answer about the effectiveness of the dose and reveal the contracts signed with the Government.
This is motion 1725, dated last Friday, January 14. According to the document, issued by the parliamentarian, whose position is anti-vaccine, the summons corresponds to those in charge of Synopharm, Pfizer, BioNtech, AstraZeneca, Moderna, Johnson & Johnson and Janssen in Peru.
Among the arguments, the parliamentarian requests that the representatives of the laboratories explain about the content of the applied doses and that they inform if it is in an “experimental phase”. This despite the World Health Organization (WHO) approved the use of vaccines in Peru, as Sinopharm, Pfizer Y AstraZeneca, after having passed all its clinical evaluations for its effectiveness by up to 79% in preventing severe cases of COVID-19, according to the advisory group of immunization experts cited by Diario El Peruano.

Likewise, the congresswoman considers that those mentioned have to report on the contracts signed for the sale of doses against COVID-19 (prices, manufacturers, payment locations, conditions and guarantees of use).
Along these lines, it also requests that they declare the authorizations for the export of vaccines, as well as the incidence of hospitalized patients who have been inoculated and not inoculated. In the same way, it requires that they detail the responsibilities in the face of possible secondary effects.
questions
Congressmen from the Free Peru caucus itself questioned that Margot Palacios present a bill which proposes that vaccination against COVID-19 is not mandatory. The parliamentarian’s initiative establishes that “no one may impose sanitary measures that affect the health or life of people” despite the efforts of the Ministry of Health (Minsa) to control infections and deaths from the coronavirus.
Initiative No. 958/2021-CR in its article 2 orders that “no one may apply to a person or force him to apply a medical procedure, vaccine or medicine against his will”, a proposal that has generated a series of questions by the results shown by the vaccine in the country to the immunized population.
