Citizen Dione Araújo lost her husband, José Thadeu, to Covid-19. According to her, the retired military police officer, a fervent follower of President Jair Bolsonaro, continued living normally despite the president's statements regarding the pandemic, without taking the necessary precautions against the coronavirus.
According to the author and several scientists, in speeches and events, the country's president disregarded social isolation rules (recommended by the WHO and the Ministry of Health), downplayed the seriousness of the problem, and encouraged the use of ineffective medications against the disease.
According to the author of the accountability request , Bolsonaro has many followers who admire him and follow everything he does and orders, which is why she proposes that he be held accountable for advocating bad behavior in the face of COVID-19!
With over 53,000 signatures, the petition joins others that have called for a Parliamentary Commission of Inquiry into the Pandemic and the impeachment of the president.
