Nationwide protests were staged in Brazil as people expressed their disapproval of the government’s handling of the coronavirus crisis, demanding vaccination for everyone.
Massive but mostly peaceful demonstrations were held in numerous cities and towns across the Latin American country on Saturday. ‘Fora Bolsonaro’ (Bolsonaro Out) was one of the main slogans among protesters, who demanded the impeachment of President Jair Bolsonaro over the response to the Covid-19 pandemic.
