Health worker investigated for taking 5 doses of Covid-19 vaccine

A man, a healthcare professional from Sergipe, is being investigated by the Civil Police after it was discovered that he had taken five doses of vaccine against Covid-19. The professional would have been immunized in different cities and the case was identified in the city of Aquidabã.

After the identification of the failure by the municipality’s Health Department, the case was communicated to the Public Ministry, which notified the police station and the police report was registered.

“In Aquidabã, the man presented the address of his parents’ house, with another number. After continuing the steps, the real address of the man’s relatives was found, as well as his address in Aracaju, where he resides,” reported the police.

In a statement, the Health Department of Sergipe said that it guides the municipalities as to the rigor in the registration of the population.

See the full note:

The State Department of Health (SES) has been directing municipalities to have more rigor in the registration of the population to avoid possible failures in the immunization process.

SES clarifies that occurrences are only identified after manual notes have been entered into the computerized system, which indicates, for example, that the person has already taken all doses of the vaccine against covid-19.

Thus, Saúde recommends that health teams register the person immediately so that they can be detected before applying the immunobiological.
