#2Brazilian here: Given the insane number of venues and public events that he was attending or hosting I am actually surprised it took this far for him to get the virus.

#3Given how Bolsonaro was ignoring the pandemic, I believe that if we used contact tracing, we would probably find that Bolsonaro is the biggest single spreader of COVID-19 in Brazil.

#4Not to be insensitive, but what's the death rate for healthy individuals in his age range? Next to zero? Italy reported that 99% of those who died from Corona had other health issues.[1] In my county (county, not country) it was reported that 99.4% of our Covid cases have recovered, and that was just the cases that were tracked. Yes, the vulnerable should be taken care of, but legitimately asking - why is there still hysteria over this?

He was one of the first to bring COVID-19 to Brazil in a visit to the US in March. So one can truly say that he has spread the virus to millions.
