I am all in favor of everyone getting vaccinated as soon as possible.

Difficult, here in my country (Brazil) the president himself campaigns against vaccination. Lots and lots of people have not yet been vaccinated, lots and lots of vaccines have expired, corruption in my country is increasing as cities and states have gained autonomy from the government. In short, the pandemic in Brazil is far from over, while many, many people die every day.

Yeah.. heard a lot about Jair Bolsonaro. He shouldn't be the president at all. He was elected just because he got his main opponent (Lula da Silva) jailed on false charges. Ever since he was elected as the president in 2019, he has done a lot of damage to the environment and to the citizens of Brazil. He actively encourages deforestation and encroachment of indigenous areas. The sooner he is kicked out of office, that good for Brazil (and for the world). And almost 600,000 have died from COVID so far in Brazil. That is the second highest death toll in the world (after the US).
Bolsonaro is a totally destructive guy and without any kind of preparation to be president. He was only elected because the opposition was severely weakened by various corruption allegations. In this next election, we will have a candidate who can face both slates, Ciro Gomes.
