Disagreement between PSP and GNR regarding the escort for the transport of vaccines against covid-19, departing from Évora Hospital to Beja. Upon arrival in Beja the PSP escorted the GNR and the van.
Six vehicles, including a beater on a motorcycle and a vehicle from the Intervention Station, from the PSP Beja District Command escorted two GNR vehicles and the company van in charge of distributing vaccines against covid-19 from the time they entered the city to the José Joaquim Fernandes Hospital, in Beja.
The delegation was admitted to the JosĂ© Joaquim Fernandes Hospital at 20,30 hours, almost two hours after having discharged about 350 vaccines at the Hospital do EspĂrito Santo, in Évora and was then blocked.
It was the second episode of a “war without barracks” in the assumption of responsibility for the area of ​​jurisdiction of each of the security forces., after the van that was being monitored by the GNR from Coimbra was blocked by the PSP after unloading the first dose at the Évora Hospital.
The Minister of Internal Affairs, Eduardo Cabrita, already determined, Monday, the opening of an urgent inquiry by the Inspector General of Internal Administration due to the disagreements between PSP and GNR that occurred this Monday in the follow-up of the distribution of vaccines against Covid-19 in Évora.
After leaving the Beja Hospital, head to Faro, where the GNR and the van “should receive the same treatment” by the PSP.
Contrary to what happened in other hospitals, the president of the ULSBA Board of Directors, Conceição Margalha, did not allow entry to the José Joaquim Fernandes Hospital to do a photo report.
