According to the same report, the number of Colombians with the complete vaccination schedule, that is, those who have already received the two doses of the biological, currently amounts to 28,191,553 people, while 6,303,705 people have been immunized with single doses.

In December last year, the Fifth Section of the Council of State accepted a guardianship filed by citizen Carlos Arturo Rangel, who claimed he had the cure against covid-19, and demanded that President Iván Duque declare a State of Emergency so that the Army could patrol and control public order in cities and rural areas of the country in the midst of the covid-19 pandemic.

According to Rangel, the facts of insecurity that occurred in the country occurred because the president of the Colombians had not decreed in a State of Emergency allowing the National Army to take over the chaos. In addition, as he assured that he had the “real cure for covid-19,” he also proposed that the national government should negotiate with him the acquisition of immunization products and the application of that vaccine to all Colombians.

First of all, the ruling of the Council of State detailed that in the guardianship the citizen stated that “the acts of violence and insecurity that have been plaguing many communities, mainly caused by organized armed groups and common criminal gangs, are due to the fact that the head of state, despite having the ability to to do so, has not decreed a state of emergency allowing the Army to make use of the tools it has in place to maintain the peace”.

He condemned that indigenous people, demobilized persons, social leaders, among others, were murdered in the country “without the national government investigating and punishing those who commit such crimes, despite the fact that there is an army equipped with tools that can control such crime”.

And about the vaccine against covid-19 “he alleged that not negotiating with him the supply and distribution of the cure against various diseases is part of the facts that he considers to violate his fundamental rights, since he has not been granted permission to apply what he says is the vaccine against covid-19: called Supercharity 777″. The document mentions several vaccines because the man also indicated that he knew the cure for cancer and AIDS.

About the 777 Supercharity vaccine in the Rangel guardianship detailed that it cured covid-19 with one or two injections and explained how he got it. According to him, this vaccine arrived “for the benefit and health of all Colombians and the world, and that said scientist was the one who took out the vaccine and gave it to the world, but they changed the formula given directly by God (...), that the Kingdom of Spiritual God appeared in Palmira, Valle del Cauca, Colombia”.

Faced with the demands of the citizen, the Council of State studied guardianship and decided to deny it because, in the first measure, it is not the mechanism to require the President to impose a state of emergency. And on the application of the vaccine, they said that the first thing to do is submit it to the National Institute for Drug and Food Surveillance (Invima) so that it is from there that its application is approved or not.
