Brazil's Bolsonaro holds another maskless rally
Aug 9, 2021
Mexico City (dpa) - Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro rode maskless through the capital Brasilia on Sunday during a motorcycle rally.
Hundreds of supporters joined him on the ride through the capital and surrounding area and most also did not wear masks, according to local media.
It came after Bolsonaro held a rally with thousands of participants in the southern city of Florianopolis on Saturday - also amid maskless crowds.
Bolsonaro was fined for not wearing a mask earlier this year by two state governments after a large motorcycle rally in Sao Paulo in June and an event in Maranhao state in May. Both states are led by opponents of Bolsonaro.
