Program Title: As Bolsonaro downplays COVID-19, Brazil nears two million cases
Description: Brazil is nearing two million confirmed cases of COVID-19. The country is second to only the United States in its number of cases and deaths. And recently, Brazil’s leader himself has tested positive. Despite this, President Jair Bolsonaro continues to downplay the threat of the virus.
Today on Front Burner, we’re joined by Gustavo Ribiero, a journalist with The Brazilian Report and host of the Explaining Brazil podcast. He’ll tell us how COVID-19 overtook Brazil, and why he thinks its president is unlikely to ever acknowledge the danger.
