Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro reportedly tests positive for coronavirus

He met with Trump at Mar-a-Lago last weekend. This might escalate very rapidly.

To state what is obvious you have a person who by nature comes in contact with many people in many situations. (Any many of those they come in contact with also do). So you&#x27;d expect them to have a higher probability of getting infected.<p>Not only that but you have a person who specifically might have to avoid not appearing to be &#x27;business as usual&#x27; or not wanting offend people by not having a meeting or a visit as planned. That&#x27;s quite a different standard then most of &#x27;regular&#x27; people can in trying to avoid socials situations.

Fox News has confirmation from his son, however, they are waiting for the 2nd test results: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.foxnews.com&#x2F;world&#x2F;brazil-bolsonaro-tests-positive-coronavirus" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.foxnews.com&#x2F;world&#x2F;brazil-bolsonaro-tests-positiv...</a><p>&gt; <i>Bolsonaro’s son Eduardo told Fox News that they are doing further testing to confirm the diagnosis, adding that they expect the second set of testing results later Friday.</i>

This thread is devolving and should be removed.

I&#x27;m sure the narrative will be that he doesn&#x27;t have Covid-19, he&#x27;s the victim of an assassination plot by the medical establishment for speaking out against them.

It was already reported he tested negative.

Everything we know about Donald Trump tells us he is paranoid about contracting illnesses, going as far as to refuse to be in meetings with someone who coughs (per multiple reports). I find it hard to imagine he hasn&#x27;t been tested given his recent proximity to the Brazilian President and his staff. But he insists he has not been tested. I really don&#x27;t understand the game Trump is playing here. And where the hell is the declaration of a national emergency? He declares one for his precious wall but not for a global pandemic?

Tests for world leaders and basketball players; no tests for common people.<p>I feel like it&#x27;s probable Trump and other extremely high-ranking government people have the virus. I also feel like it&#x27;s not being publicized for political&#x2F;economic reasons. I admit this is speculation, but even if Trump, Pence, etc. were tested and &quot;reported&quot; to be negative, should we believe that?

Yet somehow Brazil only has 154 reported cases...
