After the censorship of Hernán Condori as head of the Ministry of Health (Minsa), congressmen of Popular Renewal went to the Government Palace to leave a draft Supreme Decree to the Presidency of the Council of Ministers (PCM). What they seek is to rethink the sanitary measures that were promulgated in Supreme Decree 030-2022, such as withdrawing the compulsory nature of the three doses of the COVID-19 vaccine to enter public places and suspend the state of emergency.
The alternate spokesman of the celestial bench, Alejandro Muñante, explained that these restrictions cut the fundamental rights of Peruvians, so he gave other options to try to contain the increase in positive cases of COVID-19, as well as for Peruvians to be vaccinated freely.
“You can choose to wear a mask in closed spaces. What we are proposing here is not an end to vaccination, we believe that Peruvians have the right to go to vaccination centers, but freely and voluntarily as established by Law 31091, but in no way can that reduce their fundamental rights as proposed by the current Decree 030-2022″, he told the press.
He also criticized the Government's attempt to cover up its mismanagement, in relation to the early expiration of vaccines against COVID-19, by threatening the population with the “restriction of their freedoms” if they do not complete their third dose.
Another of those present outside the Government Palace was the legislator José Cueto, also from Renovación Popular. He stressed that, despite their requests, they are not against vaccines, but stressed that their application must be voluntary.
“We have been accompanying Congressman Muñante to leave a document asking the PCM to withdraw the supreme decree by extending the state of emergency and restricting the right of citizens, and within that is the obligation to vaccinate,” Cueto told the media.
“What the State has to do is encourage people to get vaccinated, not ban them because they are not vaccinated,” he said.
RESTRICTIONS BEGIN THIS APRIL 1
Since this Friday, April 1, the government of Pedro Castillo has mandated, of a mandatory nature, to have the three doses of the vaccine against COVID-19 in order to enter public and private establishments. This provision shall apply to all persons over 18 years of age.
The measure, which seeks to speed up the vaccination process in Peru, was made official on March 26 through Supreme Decree 030-2022-PCM, which also extends the state of emergency for a period of 30 calendar days, beginning on the first day of April.
PLACE WHERE THE THREE DOSES WILL BE REQUIRED
The requirement for the three doses of vaccine reaches those over 18 years of age who seek to enter shopping centers, shopping malls, department stores, general stores, conglomerates, shops supplying basic necessities, supermarkets, markets, restaurants and the like in internal areas.
As well as casinos, slots, cinemas, theaters, banks, churches, temples, places of worship, libraries, museums, cultural centers, art galleries, clubs, sports associations premises, hairdressers, barbershops, spas, Turkish baths, sauna, thermal baths, gyms, notaries, customer service offices, administrative procedures and tables of parts of public and private institutions, as well as professional associations.
In addition, those who wish to attend stadiums and coliseums must also certify their full vaccination.
