Rio de Janeiro: Some of Rio’s biggest samba schools say they will not participate in next year’s Carnival unless a coronavirus vaccine is widely available, Brazilian media reported Tuesday. Five of the 12 top samba schools, including Mangueira and Beija Flor, told Brazil’s O Globo newspaper they would vote to postpone the parades at a meeting set for Tuesday. "It’s simple. If there’s no vaccine, there will be no samba," said the head of the Sao Clemente school, Renatinho Gomes.
