Abstract
ABSTRACT The immunization campaign against COVID-19 started in Brazil in January 2021 after strong pressure from society on the federal government, which had created a series of ideological obstacles against vaccines, especially those produced with Chinese inputs. This article analyzes the impact of far-right ideology on the spatial distribution of vaccine coverage against COVID-19 in Brazilian municipalities. By means of hierarchical models, it was identified that, maintaining constant socio-demographic characteristics and the structures of the Unified Health System, the degree of bolsonarismo in the municipalities had a negative impact on the coverage rates of the first, second and, especially, of the third dose.RESUMO A campanha de imunização contra a Covid-19 foi iniciada no Brasil em janeiro de 2021 após forte pressão da sociedade sobre o governo federal, que havia criado uma série de empecilhos ideológicos às vacinas, sobretudo as produzidas com insumos chineses. Este artigo analisa o impacto da ideologia de extrema direita na distribuição espacial da cobertura vacinal contra Covid-19 nos municípios brasileiros. Por meio de modelos hierárquicos multiníveis de dois estágios identificou-se que, mantidas constantes as características sociodemográficas e as estruturas do Sistema Único de Saúde, o grau de bolsonarismo nos municípios impactou negativamente as taxas de cobertura da primeira, da segunda e, especialmente, da terceira dose da vacina.
