Sim, @infomoney, os USD 10 foi a taxa cartorária. Porém, a matéria aparenta isentar Lula de responsabilidade, o que é falso. Veja a resolução do Min. Saúde 118/2023, que instituiu a vacinação contra COVID a crianças (6 meses a 5 anos de idade) e a prevê como vacina de rotina no calendário vacinal de 2024. Ou seja, é OBRIGATÓRIA uma vez que o art. 14, §1º do ECA prevê como tal nos casos recomendados pelas autoridades sanitárias. https://t.co/aLtAz0OYC1 #COVID19 #SaúdePública #Vacinação

Passando para avisar aos jornalistas brasileiros que seus colegas da imprensa americana já estão começando a pedir desculpas por terem endossado e incentivado a ditadura sanitária que violentou corpos e consciências de forma brutal. Stephen A. Smith, da ESPN, teve a humildade de reconhecer que a desconfiança de muitos era, sim, legítima - o que acabou de ser comprovado pelo diário de Fauci. O jornalista lembrou vários casos de esportistas que foram barbarizados por não terem se curvado à pressão que a imprensa ajudou a fazer, mostrando-se envergonhado. Neste exato momento, vocês parecem aquelas crianças que, brincando de esconde-esconde, posicionam-se por detrás da cortina deixando os pezinhos à mostra, achando que ninguém está vendo. O Stephen A. Smith recusou-se a essa posição ridícula e já se deu por encontrado, podendo seguir a vida sem precisar enfrentar o desgaste diário de ter de se defender do indefensável. #Imprensa #LiberdadeDeImprensa #SaúdePública
