RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL: Thousands of Brazilians took to the streets on Saturday (Sunday in Manila) to protest against President Jair Bolsonaro who faces an investigation over an allegedly corrupt Covid vaccine deal.
It was the third day of demonstrations against the government, which is also confronting mounting pressure from a parliamentary inquiry into its handling of the coronavirus pandemic that has claimed more than 500,000 lives in the country.
