Brazilian health minister resigns with less than a month in office. The reason is the intrusion of the president of the republic who does not accept the health protocols used worldwide.
Unfortunately, we live with a genocidal president who is unable to govern the country in times of crisis.

Without any scientific support and by imposition of the President of the Republic, who is a layman in science and medicine, the Ministry of Health releases chloroquine to all patients of covid-19 in Brasil. - Now the question: Who will be responsible for this?

Friends, I come to inform you that I am showing symptoms of covid-19.
They are typically flu-like symptoms. I have a dry cough, body aches, but I didn't have a fever and luckily no respiratory symptoms. However, I completely lost my sense of smell, which leads me to believe that it really is covid-19. I will wait until Tuesday to do the tests in particular and know for sure. I hope to continue reasonably well until then.
I just don't understand how I may have acquired the virus, since today I still take all possible precautions.
