Regarding the Covaxin case, it claimed that there had been a bribe of $1 per dose and that the government paid 1,000% more: R$1.6 billion for 20 million doses, thus making it the most expensive vaccine at that moment. According to the profile, Francisco Maximiano, owner of Precisa, had ties with the Bolsonaro family, and Flávio allegedly mediated a meeting with the then president of BNDES months before the company closed the contract. The author mentioned that the Miranda brothers identified irregularities in the doses and an advance payment of $45 million to a company in Singapore. One official reportedly refused to release the payment, and pressure began.

It claimed that during the CPI, relationships of Flávio with Danilo Trento came to light, who allegedly attended the meeting and also traveled to Las Vegas, and who was under investigation in the Master case.
