The threat of COVID-19 was “overstated”, according to Brazil President Jair Bolsonaro.
Brazil President Jair Bolsonaro minimized the threat of the 2019 novel coronavirus or COVID-19, saying that its destructive power has been “overstated”.
This, after the 2019 novel coronavirus or COVID-19 has killed over 4,000 people in more than 60 countries worldwide and tanked global financial markets. The fall of world markets, according to Brazil President Jair Bolsonaro, “has to do with the price of oil, which sank 30 percent, and with the coronavirus issue too,” adding that it was even potentially being “exaggerated for political reasons”.
Bolsonario was traveling around Florida in order to boost investor confidence in Latin America’s biggest economy. He then met US President Donald Trump at the Mar-a-Lago residence in Palm Beach while visiting the state.
