MPF wants Anvisa to enforce regulatory measures
The Federal Prosecutor’s Office has decided to file a public civil lawsuit to compel the National Health Surveillance Agency (Anvisa) to comply with a decision requiring people to be isolated after traveling through South Africa, India and the United Kingdom. The purpose of this procedure is to prevent delta variable propagation.
The attorney general’s office notes that sharing the passenger list with airlines, with a “duty warning of confidentiality of data,” could prevent cases such as the first infection with the delta variant registered in Brazil. The person, coming from India, landed at Guarulhos airport and pledged to comply with the quarantine at the arrival point. However, the traveler continued on his way to Rio de Janeiro on a domestic flight.
The attorney general’s office stated that it held emergency meetings with Anfisa in June “in which the same agency proposed to share with airlines the list of passengers to be quarantined.” “Not only did Anvisa establish that contact would be an essential measure to prevent the spread of the new variant in the national territory of air transport, but also stressed that close contact between the agency and airlines would be a facilitating factor for informing who must comply with the quarantine, thus preventing them from boarding the aircraft during This period,” the procedure highlights.
According to the MPF, the procedure was not carried out. In response to a question from the plaintiffs, the agency said there was no regulatory provision allowing the quarantine list to be shared. For the attorney general, Anvisa will only have to adopt procedures to activate and comply with regulations signed by federal government ministries.
