Once more, President Jair Bolsonaro has gone against his own Health Minister’s recommendations. This morning, Mr. Bolsonaro visited different public places, including a hospital and a drugstore, and physically interacted with his supporters. On Thursday, he had also broken quarantine by buying a donut from a Brasília bakery. When questioned about his decision, the president said he had “the constitutional right to come and go.” 

“No one will hinder my right to come and go,” he added. “No one.”

As showed by Gustavo Ribeiro and Euan Marshall on this week’s podcast, Mr. Bolsonaro is currently at war with his health minister.
