If not everyone is half crazy in the Bolsonaro government, the Brazilian is completely crazy. On the way to the mark of 300 thousand deaths from covid, the country presented itself with an unusual spectacle. The two supposed ministers of health of Brazil dance among the corpses the choreography of madness. In it, we are the crazy ones.
Brazil is more surreal than usual. The Bolsonaro government has two health ministers, but the country knows that it should only depend on both to a certain extent: the question mark. Health policy does not belong to Minister A or Minister B. The anti-scientist of the President of the Republic prevails.
The ineptitude went to Eduardo Pazuello’s head. On the way to the starting door, the general warms his chest like a second belly to show off the “success” of his management in the Health portfolio. “I am going to deliver an organized ministry, working and with everything ready,” he declared.
While waiting for the inauguration ceremony, the cardiologist Marcelo Queiroga became a meaningless change by dancing the preservation ballet, with Pazuello clarifying that the transition is one of “continuity”, because the successor “says the same little book.”
Subjected to the horror of crowded ICUs, the Brazilian is confused when he hears Pazuello, the departing minister, dictating rules of behavior that Bolsonaro has always despised.“We are going to change habits. Habit of wearing a mask, washing hands. Habit of maintaining the degree of social withdrawal …”
The audience’s confusion is heightened when Queiroga, the minister who arrives saying that he is chained to the guidelines of a president at war with the governors, declares that “a national union to combat the pandemic is fundamental.” The virus is so contagious that it has infected even the brocade: the Union is making a sham.
Eager for vaccines, the public flirts with the feeling of guilt when listening to Queiroga say that no one should be “waiting for the government to solve everything”, because “a national current is necessary for us to be successful in this great challenge.” Having just arrived at the Esplanade, the doctor has not yet realized that the country no longer expects much from the government. At the current juncture, hope is the last thing that kills.
The feeling of guilt is exacerbated by the difficulty that the Brazilian has to listen to Pazuello’s optimism. With a halo of glory around him, the general said that preventive measures should be sufficient to “to avoid a great number of deaths and to continue life as normal as possible.”
Pazuello intoned something like an exhortation: “We are going to work, study, teach, train troops, produce, live normally with preventive care. That is our mission.”“The more than 280 thousand Brazilians killed by the covid will not be able to carry out the general’s mission.
In an interview with Pazuello, at Fiocruz, Queiroga recited the new boss’s slogan: “Brazil above all, God above allIt is as if the future minister, on the eve of taking on the challenge, harbors the hope that a divine solution will emerge from the bottom of the sanitary chaos.
Queiroga is right to combine his medical-scientific knowledge with mysticism. While marching through the situation in the company of Pazuello, the doctor burned himself before taking office.
The “new” minister will really need heavenly help to fulfill his challenging role. It will not be easy to establish himself as the sustainer of the success of a predecessor that Bolsonaro dismissed for excess of efficiency. In this environment, the very idea of a solution is a cult of failure.
