President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva resumed attacks on Jair Bolsonaro's handling of the covid-19 pandemic on Monday (11). He presented a Health Ministry report and urged militants to read the document.
The event took place during the signing of a bill establishing March 12 as National Day in Memory of Covid-19 Victims. Lula highlighted that the document details previous government actions, including downplaying the virus and opposing vaccines.
"The Health Ministry published here the 'Bolsonaro Management and the Covid-19 pandemic'. It is important that every militant has this in hand," the president said. He also criticized the defense of chloroquine without scientific basis.
Health Minister Alexandre Padilha clarified that he produced the text as a private individual, without using ministry resources. Lula also referred indirectly to Eduardo Bolsonaro as a "fugitive".
