False information from the mouths of politicians and preachers is reaching remote villages in the Amazon via WhatsApp, reports BBC News Brasil s Juliana Gragnani.
A helicopter loaded with health workers and coronavirus vaccine doses took off from Labrea, in the southern part of the Amazon, heading to a village some 50km away.
But the villagers, part of the indigenous Jamamadi group, greeted the chopper armed with bows and arrows - and demanded that it leave.
They d been hearing false rumours about vaccines and wanted reassurances from a religious missionary - not doctors - before getting jabbed. The helicopter left without administering any of the doses.

The Texas Rangers are in a transition stage right now. They’ve had a few decent seasons, but the majority have been less than .500. The past 3 seasons alone saw a 67-95 record, 78-84 the year after, and a 22-38 record in a COVID hit season. There has been a small influx of prospects making their way into the Majors roster over the past couple of years. A new GM, some trades likely to come up, and a few FA signings could see things change dramatically for the 2021 season.
