The work deals with some recent decisions of the Brazilian Federal Supreme Court about vaccina- tion and other measures against COVID-19. The study notices that the pandemic brought about a further increasing of the process of health policies judicialization, that has already been in progress for a long time, since 1988 federal Constitution entered into force. Such a process was strengthened by the resistance Bolsonaro administration opposed to both adoption and implementation of anti- pandemic measures recommended by WHO. Resulting trials concerned a great number of items related to health policies. The work focuses especially on decisions dealing with vaccination, the role of Union, states and municipalities in the struggle against COVID-19, as well as with Government’s long-lasting inaction.
Il lavoro analizza alcune recenti decisioni del Supremo Tribunale Federale brasiliano in materia di vaccinazioni e di misure di contrasto alla pandemia di COVID-19, rilevando come quest’ultima abbia causato un’ulteriore intensificazione del processo di giurisdizionalizzazione delle politiche in materia di salute, già in corso da tempo nella vigenza della Costituzione federale del 1988. A ciò ha particolarmente contribuito la resistenza opposta dall’amministrazione Bolsonaro all’adozione e all’implementazione delle misure raccomandate dall’OMS. Il conseguente contenzioso ha riguar- dato moltissimi aspetti delle politiche sanitarie. Le decisioni analizzate riguardano in particolare la questione delle vaccinazioni, quella del ruolo dei diversi livelli territoriali di governo nell’azione di contrasto al COVID-19 e quella della prolungata inazione governativa.

Abstract
The work deals with some recent decisions of the Brazilian Federal Supreme Court about vaccina- tion and other measures against COVID-19. The study notices that the pandemic brought about a further increasing of the process of health policies judicialization, that has already been in progress for a long time, since 1988 federal Constitution entered into force. Such a process was strengthened by the resistance Bolsonaro administration opposed to both adoption and implementation of anti- pandemic measures recommended by WHO. Resulting trials concerned a great number of items related to health policies. The work focuses especially on decisions dealing with vaccination, the role of Union, states and municipalities in the struggle against COVID-19, as well as with Government’s long-lasting inaction.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
