Bolsonaro called the coronavirus crisis a "fantasy" literally days ago.The positive test comes after Bolsonaros press secretary was found to have the disease following a trip to the US. His son Eduardo Bolsonaro, a congressman who was also on the trip, tweeted that his father is not exhibiting any signs of the disease
Bolsonaro dined with Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago on Saturday night and videos and photos, including some on Wajngartens own Instagram account, showed the press secretary, Bolsonaro and Trump all in close proximity. Im not concerned, Trump told reporters on Thursday.
Bolsonaro has downplayed the crisis. On Wednesday, he said Other flus kill more than this and has also called concern over coronavirus oversized.

Info:
Jair Bolsonaros son, Eduardo, has tweeted to say that his fathers coronavirus test is not yet complete.Eduardo Bolsonaro🇧🇷 (@BolsonaroSP)
(ENG)Too much lies and little information. Coronavirus exam done with the team that were with JB in USA have not yet been completed. There are always those people who tell lies in the media and if the story is confirmed they say "I told you!", if not will be just 1 more fake news March 13, 2020
It appear that although Bolsonaros initial test has come back positive, he is still awaiting the results of a second, definitive test.
Meanwhile, however, the Fox Business network is reporting that the White House is due to hold an urgent meeting on Bolsonaros positive coronavirus test.
Bolsonaro and Trump are so much alike it makes me ill that there could be two of them. Liars, thieves and pillagers, all.

(5,170 posts)O Globo and Jornal O Dia are both popular rags in Brazil. O Globo has the widest circulation and power.
At this stage, this information can change. O Globo also states Brazil will be declaring a state of emergency and isolating visitors for 7 days.
