#Brazil #Brasilia #Coronavirus #Bolsonaro

Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro on Thursday visited Health Minister General Eduardo Pazuello, who has COVID-19, and made his point that the disease is easy to recover quickly from with the help of the controversial drug chloroquine.
The two men chatted and joked without wearing masks in Pazuello's hotel room, seen in a video posted on social media by the president, who recovered from a bout of COVID-19 in July.
"This is another concrete case of someone who took chloroquine and it worked," Bolsonaro said. "This is an alternative, when doctors prescribe it."
Pazuello, an active-duty Army general, said he felt tired on Sunday, but went to work on Monday and felt worse that night, with headaches and fever. He was diagnosed with COVID-19 the next day.
With Pazuello, roughly half of Bolsonaro's 23-member Cabinet have now caught COVID-19, besides the president and the first lady.

Although the corona pandemic in Iran claims more victims every day and, according to official information, more than 32,320 of the 562,705 infected have died from or with Covid-19,
a standardized strategy is still not visible in the war against the pandemic. 28 of Iran's 31 provinces have now reached the highest level of alert. One speaks unofficially of the more than 42,000 dead. In an interview,
Health Minister Said Namaki said that if simple new measures are not taken immediately, "corpses must be collected from the streets." The government subsequently criticized his warning as being quite pessimistic.

The number of reported coronavirus infections in Germany has risen to 422,586. According to the information from the state authorities of 14 of the 16 federal states evaluated by me, 12,754 new cases were added within 24 hours.
Saxony and Saxony-Anhalt do not publish case numbers at the state level at the weekend. The number of deaths related to infection rose 35 to 10,013. Around 100,700 people are currently infected.

If you ask me about the normalization of ties between Israel and Saudi Arabia I would say it isnt only because already longer good secret relations. But its this time that Saudi Arabia could profit alot. One reasone for that is SA worsening financial situation.
A while ago citizen didnt payed any or less taxes, 60% of all workers in Saudi Arabia are working for the state (meanwhile there is a employment ban), and worst of all the price decline of the black gold. Saudi Arabias ecconomie actual depends heavly on it.
And the financial reserve are shrinking. And a while ago MBZ held several super rich hostage in a hotel if they wouldnt pay a big amount of money as the lifed on the costs of the state, many werte parts of the ruling family. And Israel a many times smaller country,
