This international comment, Uncle Mu will talk about Brazil.
causes two reasons -
first. After Brazilian President Bolsonaro was infected with the new coronavirus, he was receiving treatment. According to his statement, nucleic acid test has turned negative.
second, Brazilian local media reported on July 24 that although the epidemic in Brazil ranks second most in the world after the United States, Bolsonaro's popularity has reached a new high.
Is the second situation too incredible?
Why can this President Bolsonaro, known as "tropical Trump ", create a miracle under the epidemic?
is surprising because Bolsonaro has basically ignored the new coronavirus. Since the outbreak, he has often criticized home epidemic prevention and lockdown measures, claiming that the economy has been affected worse than the virus itself.
And the Minister of Health told him that this was not a trivial matter, and he even dismissed the other party, so that the outbreak of the epidemic in Brazil, and even more new cases in many days than in the United States, he himself was even caught.
Currently, more than 2.3 million confirmed cases in Brazil and 85,000 deaths. But the polls subvert people's perception of Bolsonaro.
Brazilian News Magazine "Observation", released the latest poll results on July 24. If the election in 2022 comes, Bolsonaro will get about 30% of the votes, leading among all candidates.
If the election enters the second round, Bolsonaro can easily win the second round of elections, no matter who the opponent is.
In Uncle Mu’s opinion—
This poll shows that as the epidemic continues to develop, Brazilians’ views on this have indeed changed. From the fear at the beginning to the calm face now.
plus Bolsonaro himself was also caught and actively treated, which may make Brazilians think Bolsonaro is quite "honest", because Bolsonaro had previously claimed that it was "large flu" and said that he was not afraid of getting it.
In addition, both the United States and Russia are very serious, but herd immunity seems to be formed in some areas.
For example, Moscow Mayor Sobiyanin said that 60% of the local people are in herd immunity. For Brazilian people, the news of
may also feel that the epidemic is not as terrible as before.
Bolsonaro will certainly not be regarded as the target of public criticism.
