Launching an attack on Civid-19 vaccines, Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro said the Pfizer / BioNTech vaccine could turn people into “crocodiles” or leave women with beards, leaving netizens baffled.
Bolsonaro, who tested positive for coronavirus after months of undermining the pandemic, recently shared his thoughts on why he is against the vaccine. He recently announced Brazil’s vaccine distribution plans, saying the vaccines would eventually be provided free of charge “to all who want it,” and insisted that he would not be personally vaccinated.
“In the Pfizer contract, it is very clear: ‘We are not responsible for any side effects.’ If you turn into a crocodile, it’s your problem, ”he said, according to the AFP news agency.
