247 - The near departure of Luiz Henrique Mandetta from the Ministry of Health caused the minister to gain, in less than 24 hours, more than 98 new followers on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram. "I have no doubt that it was the biggest setback of the Bolsonaro administration," said Manoel Fernandes of Bites Consultoria. 

According to the company's analysis, carried out at the request of Estadão Column, 30% of the 2,1 million tweets quoting the minister in the last twelve months were published on Monday alone (6). 

Mandetta is in favor of social isolation. The ministry predicts a coronavirus outbreak, expected to begin between May 4th and 10th. Bolsonaro, on the other hand, had classified the coronavirus as a "little flu," a "fantasy propagated by the media," and called for the reopening of businesses.
