After crisis, Pazuello and Bolsonaro praise chloroquine

President Jair Bolsonaro (without a party) and the Minister of Health, Eduardo Pazuello, appeared together live today to deny the rumors of a crisis between the two. The pacification message comes after the head of the federal Executive publicly dismissed the subordinate, yesterday (21), in the episode of buying doses of the vaccine of Chinese origin CoronaVac.

“It’s that simple, one boss and the other obey. But we have affection, ”said Pazuello smiling. Bolsonaro reacted jokingly: “Here he is painting a climate.”

Bolsonaro was unhappy with the fact that the Ministry of Health signed with the state of São Paulo, governed by one of its enemies, João Doria (PSDB), a protocol of intentions to acquire 46 million doses of CoronaVac.

Vehicles gather for information

In response to the decision of the government of Jair Bolsonaro to restrict access to data on the covid-19 pandemic, media Twitter, El Estado de S. Paulo, Folha de S.Paulo, O Globo, G1 and Extra formed a consortium to work collaboratively to seek the necessary information directly from the state health departments of the 27 units of the Federation.

The federal government, through the Ministry of Health, should be the natural source of these figures, but the attitudes of the authorities and the president himself during the pandemic cast doubt on the availability of the data and its veracity.
