Will the final report from "CPI da Covid" recommend charges against Ricardo Barros?
Market Rules
In April 2021, a Parliamentary Commission of Inquiry (CPI) was installed in Brazil's Senate to investigate the role of the Federal Government in fighting the Covid-19 pandemic.
Among the issues that are subject to investigation is the collapse of the health system in the state of Amazonas, the recommendation of treatments without scientific proof, the purchase of vaccines, the management of the immunization process, among other issues. Also, the investigation on signs of irregularity and 'recklessness' in the purchases of Covaxin Indian vaccines has received special attention in that effort, and raised suspicion that the federal government's leader in the House of Representatives Ricardo Barros might be directly involved in the case.
If the final report of "CPI da Covid" recommends that Ricardo Barros is charged for acts that are related to any of the facts being investigated, this market will be resolved as "Yes".
