In a moment that the country registers nearly 460,000 deaths due to Covid-19, cities all over Brazil went to the streets. São Paulo, Recife, Salvador, Belém, Porto Alegre, among other territories protested for the president's impeachment, and demanding more vaccines.
Recife, a city on the Pernambuco state, had to face police brutality. A citizen that didn't even took part of the protest, was hit by a rubber bullet, and lost an eye on the incident.

The organization of the protests was emphatic when demanding for social distance and protection of protesters, such as the use of masks.
The hashtag #29MForaBolsonaro was trending on social media for the whole day, as the protests started at 8 AM and are still happening so far. Several artists and influencers also made statements through the day.
Citizens, social organizations, unions and students made this one of the biggest call outs of the year on the current Brazilian president.
