The judge made the order as part of a complaint to suspend childhood vaccinations in Uruguay.

According to the decree, the following information is requested:

• Information on the mRNA used and evidence that it is harmless
• A statement whether the vaccine or parts of its ingredients are experimental
• Detailed data demonstrating the efficacy and safety of the vaccination, i.e., “the negative or positive impact of the so-called vaccination on the number of infections and deaths diagnosed with Covid from the beginning of the campaign to the present”
• Detailed information on the average age of those who died with Covid-19 diagnosis and information on how many of those deaths were caused solely by the disease
• Information on whether studies are being conducted on the increase in deaths in Uruguay since the vaccination campaign began in March 2021
