		</div><p>Brazil’s supreme court says coronavirus vaccination can be made mandatory, delivering a blow to the nation’s nascent anti-vaccine movement.</p>
<p>But the court also ruled Brazilians may not be vaccinated against their will.</p>
<p>A court statement says Thursday’s ruling does pave the way for state and municipal governments to approve laws imposing fines or restrictive measures for anyone refusing to take a vaccine.</p>
<p>President Jair Bolsonaro has repeatedly said he will not take any vaccine and opposes mandatory immunisation. He has also sown scepticism about potential side effects.</p>
<p>Opinion polls have indicated a growing resistance to vaccination, with about one-fifth of Brazilians surveyed by pollster Datafolha this month saying they do not intend to get a shot.</p>
<p>Brazil’s health regulator Anvisa has yet to approve any shot for mass immunisation.</p>
<p><!--Ads1--></p>
<p>Should Brazil choose to vaccine its population, as it stands they have options: Oxford/AstraZeneca and Pfizer/BioNTech are currently the first vaccines approved.</p>
<p>AstraZeneca and Oxford University announced their jab is effective in preventing many people getting ill and it has been shown to work in different age groups, including the elderly.</p>
<p>Sarah Gilbert, professor of vaccinology at the University of Oxford, said: “The announcement today takes us another step closer to the time when we can use vaccines to bring an end to the devastation caused by (Covid-19).</p>
<p>“We will continue to work to provide the detailed information to regulators. It has been a privilege to be part of this multi-national effort which will reap benefits for the whole world.”</p>
