Under his face mask it was not clear if a sonata was redfaced with anger or bolsonaro was redfaced with anger or embarrassment. He tested positive for covid19. We will have to wait and see if he Still Believes as measures to keep his fellow countrymen from catching covid19 other those are not worth the effort. From the very beginning of the outbreak, the sonora bolsonaro played down the virus and described it as a flu. He flouted social distancing recommendations and other measures including wearing face masks in public. Bolsonaro tested three times previously. They all came back negative. On tuesday, the brazilian writer wrote that he tested positive for covid19. He had nausea, tiredness and a bit of muscle pain and a fever that reached 38 degrees in the late afternoon. By then, with the president ial doctor believing that it could be the possible covid19 infection. I had a ct scan here in brazil. My lungs were clear. Brazil is the second worst hit country in the world after the u. S. With more than 65,000 deaths and at least 1. 6 million coronavirus cases. Despite this, bars, restaurants and other businesses are slowly reopening. People still have doubts. As long as we follow the Safety Measures with space between the tables, think it worth reopening. We are the only ones in here but if there is someone on another table, i think it could be uncomfortable. The who warned the pandemic is far from over as it is taking its toll around the world. There have been 11. 4 million cases of covid19 and more than 535,000 lives lost. The o obreak is exhxhilarating. We have clearly not reached the peak of the pandemic.

Does this have any impact on bolsonaros ability to be president. He says no. He wants to go on to govern the country from his home video conference. At the moment, it is not sure if he would do so or if the Vice President will replace him. The next days will be troublesome. We know that president bolsonaro said he is taking the antimalarial d drug t that was pushed by u. S. President donald trump. Doctors say that medication does not work against covid19. We know why he is doing that . Do we know why he is doing that . He Still Believes in this medicine. He thinks it can help. He is convinced. Recent studies in the capital of brazil showed that hydroxychloroquine can cause heart attacks, problems that were not there before. It is not recommended by experts for all types of patients. He is taking it because donald trump also promotes this type of medicine. There is a growing list of political leaders that have become infected with the coronavirus. Some have changed their policies about the buyers, some have not. How do you think this will impact the policies of bolsonaro . I dont think it will have a huge impact on his policies in the future because bolsonaro is really keen to get the economy back on track. He needs a Strong Economy in order to be reelected in two years. This is his main aim he wants to achieve. On the other hand, he is in the middle of a political crisis. Many ministers stepped back in the last weeks and months. He was radical in the corona crisis. He will go on like this. He is under pressure and that means he might not change too much.
