Brazil President Tested Positive For Coronavirus

Brazil is one of the most affected countries due to the novel coronavirus and more than 65000 Brazilians died due to it. President Bolsonaro who downplayed the virus spread and seriousness of the pandemic, tested positive for the virus.

The people in the country and worldwide criticized Mr. Jair Bolsonaro’s handling the COVID-19 situation, reckless and the country turned out to be the second-worst hit country by the virus spread in the world. The President once ruled it out as a ‘cold’ and the other time in April when asked about the rise in death numbers, he replied ‘so what? Sorry, but what do you want me to do?’

The Brazil president attended mass rallies in his support recently and kept stressing that the virus is not a threat to healthy people and changed the health ministers who disagreed with him. Brazil, the largest country in South America and Latin America, has more than 1.6 million coronavirus confirmed cases and more than 65,000 deaths.

Bolsonaro got tested on Monday after he started experiencing fatigue, muscle pain and a fever.
