schema:articleBody	Former Peruvian president Martin Vizcarra said Sunday he and his wife caught Covid-19 six months after being inoculated with the Chinese-developed vaccine Sinopharm, coinciding with a second wave of the pandemic in the South American nation. "Despite the necessary care to avoid bringing the virus home, my wife and I have tested positive for COVID and are symptomatic," Vizcarra, who was in office from 2018-2020, tweeted. "My family is taking the necessary isolation measures. Let's not let our guard down," he said. Vizcarra, 58, had been criticized for not wearing a mask or observing social distancing during his election campaign ahead of the April 11 parliamentary election. His announcement of diagnosis comes a week after Peru's Congress voted to ban him from holding public office for 10 years, meaning he will not be able to occupy the seat he won. He has been accused of being part of a group of 470 people, mostly civil servants and public officials, who were secretly vaccinated against the coronavirus before the official start of the country's immunization campaign. Vizcarra says he was taking part in a clinical trial. Dubbed "Vacunagate," news of the secret vaccinations broke in February, resulting in two ministers from current President Francisco Sagasti's administration resigning over their implication in the scandal. Vizcarra became president in 2018 and was impeached in November 2020 by Congress on charges of corruption, which he denies. His Covid-19 diagnoses could reignite questions in Peru about the efficacy of the Sinopharm vaccines purchased by Lima. Peru is currently in the midst of a second wave of the pandemic, driven by an apparently more contagious variant of the virus that first emerged in Brazil. The current total death toll in Peru, a country of 33 million, is 59,440 out of more than 1.7 million cases since the start of the pandemic. ljc/yo/to/bgs
