On Bolsonaro's orders, members of parliament invade hospital in Espírito Santo.
Members of parliament from Espírito Santo state stormed the Dório Silva Hospital in the municipality of Serra on Friday and confirmed the obvious: almost all the beds are occupied by Covid-19 patients.
247 - After Jair Bolsonaro suggested that his followers on social media film the situation in hospitals, five state deputies from Espírito Santo - Lorenzo Pazolini (Republicanos), Vandinho Leite (PSDB), Torino Marques (PSL), Danilo Bahiense (PSL) and Carlos Von (Avante) - invaded the Dório Silva Hospital last Friday (12), located in the municipality of Serra. The information is from the Correio Braziliense portal.
According to the report, the press in Espírito Santo published a statement from the State Health Secretariat: “This type of attitude is unacceptable at a time when Espírito Santo, the country, and the world are facing the most serious health crisis of our generation. Even more serious is the fact that this attitude was fueled by an irresponsible statement from the head of state.”
According to lawmakers, almost all hospital beds were occupied by patients infected with coronavirus, leaving no room for those needing treatment for other illnesses. Representative Torino Marques publicized the action on his social media, stating that he would show the "reality of the situation from the inside."
