Abstract
Los conflictos que genera la vacunación contra el Covid-19 se proyectan en diversas direcciones. Conviene analizarlos no sólo desde el marco jurídico del Derecho sanitario y de la salud pública, sino también desde la efectiva reacción y del impacto real que produce en aquellas personas que por motivos religiosos o de conciencia plantean la negativa a someterse a la normativa legal sobre la vacunación. En este trabajo se aborda, por un lado, la posición de determinados ordenamientos religiosos en relación con el sistema de vacunación, o con algunos de los componentes que se utilizan en el proceso de fabricación de ciertas vacunas. Por otro, se analiza la evolución jurisprudencial del Derecho norteamericano y del Tribunal Europeo de Derechos Humanos con el objeto de determinar cuáles son los criterios que se han de aplicar en la ponderación de los eventuales derechos en conflicto cuyo límite se sitúa en el ejercicio de los restantes derechos fundamentales y bienes constitucionalmente protegidos.
The conflicts generated by vaccination against Covid-19 are projected in different directions, which should be analyzed not only from the legal framework of health law and public health, but also from the effective reaction and the real impact it produces on those people that for religious reasons or conscience raise the refusal to submit to the legal regulations on vaccination. This paper addresses, on the one hand, the position of certain religious orders in relation to the vaccination system, or to some of the components that are used in the manufacturing process of certain vaccines. On the other hand, it analyses the jurisprudential evolution of American law and the European Court of Human Rights with the aim of determining the criteria to be applied in the weighing up of possible conflicting rights, the limit of which lies in the exercise of other fundamental rights and constitutionally protected goods.
