The mayor of a Brazilian city that has been badly hit by the coronavirus has rounded on Jair Bolsonaro, saying the president is 'co-responsible' for the nation's vast death count.
Neto said that as the pandemic hit, he had messaged Bolsonaro to say, "Please Mr. President, shut up and stay at home." But he said his message now would be: "Resign, resign, resign, because he doesn't govern Brazil."
That dire scene is playing out in various cities across Brazil. Hospitals around the country have been battling to deal with demand, and on Sunday the White Housefor any individual who has been in Brazil within the 14 days immediately prior to their arrival. The video is part of an investigation into accusations that Bolsonaro interfered in police matters, which the President has repeatedly denied.
The same afternoon, Bolsonaro appeared at another rally of his supporters in the Brazilian governmental capital Brasilia, where he was seen not wearing a mask near crowds.
