SAO PAULO, April 13 — Brazil’s health minister urged the government to speak with a unified voice in its fight against the new coronavirus, calling out President Jair Bolsonaro for downplaying the threat ahead of what are likely to be the two toughest months for the outbreak. “I hope we can speak with a single, unified message, because otherwise Brazilians end up doubting. They don’t know whether to listen to the health minister, the president. Who should they listen to,” Mandetta said.
Brazil’s death toll rose to 1,223 people yesterday, 99 more than the previous day’s tally, while the number of confirmed cases hit 22,169, according to Health Ministry data.
It'll indefensible move for belated action!
