The president of Brazil Jair Bolsonaro rushed to hospital in Sao Paulo.
From what is learned, the leader of Brasilia suffered a sudden intestinal obstruction, which required the assistance of the doctors of the Vila Nova Star clinic.
It is a disease that Bolsonaro has been suffering from since 2018, as a result of the stabbing in the abdomen suffered by a protester during a stage of the election campaign that led him to the presidency. Since then, the president has undergone several surgeries.
"We will have to wait for the results of a CT scan and other tests - explained his personal doctor - to find out what is in the abdomen. We do not know yet, but the problem could also be caused, for example, by food. badly chewed ".
Therefore, 2022 of Bolsonaro, 66, in power since 2019, does not begin in the best way, and in the coming months he will be engaged in the electoral campaign to seek an encore.
And, ten months after the vote, the outgoing president is behind in the polls, preceded by Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, already in power between 2003 and 2010, who is attributed 40% of the voting intentions.
To weigh on Bolsonaro's approval, given at 30%, also the bitter controversies on the management of the Covid pandemic by his government, which according to many would have underestimated, if not downright diminished, the gravity of the situation, contributing to the spread of infections, which have caused over 600 thousand deaths in the country, without taking the necessary measures and restrictions following the example of other nations.
