Greenwald: Bolsonaro could kill millions if he ends isolation measures.
"Bolsonaro says he is asking the Minister of Health to impose regulations in which *only* the elderly or people with illnesses should be isolated. Everyone else should go back to work, go out on the street, go back to school. He will kill large numbers of people if this happens," journalist Glenn Greenwald stated on Twitter.
247 - Glenn Greenwald, a journalist for the Intercept Brasil website, condemned Jair Bolsonaro's initiative, which signaled the government's intention to end social isolation, leaving the measure valid only for the elderly.
"Bolsonaro says he is asking the Minister of Health to impose regulations in which *only* the elderly or people with illnesses should be isolated. Everyone else should go back to work, go out on the street, go back to school. He will kill large numbers if this happens," Greenwald said on Twitter.
On Tuesday night (24), Bolsonaro said that isolation worsens the economic crisis. "The risk group is people over 60 years old. So why close schools? Fatal cases are rare among healthy people under 40 years old," he said.
