1. The Embassy cannot yet sign off on the agreement proposed in
REFTEL. Due to Brazilian sensitivities on health related issues,
the Embassy's ESTH office is seeking more information from the
Brazilian partner (REDOME) before it can provide a definitive
response.
2. The Embassy POC for this item is ESTH Officer Jeremy Long -
LongJW@state.gov - Tel. 55 61 3312-7675.
3. An additional cable will be sent once the Embassy has concluded
its deliberation. Embassy anticipates that another two weeks are
needed because Brazil will be closed for the week of Carnival.
