Brazil President Jair Bolsonaro tested positive for coronavirus again, CNN Brazil said on Wednesday, quoting the far right leader, who underwent a new test on Tuesday.

Bolsonaro, who at 65 is in a high risk group, said he would remain in quarantine at his official residence in Brasilia from where he would continue to work by video conference.

The far-right president, who has caused huge controversy in Brazil for repeatedly flouting lockdown measures in place to curb the spread of the virus, first tested positive a week ago.

He admitted on Monday by telephone interview with CNN that he “can’t stand this routine of staying at home” and said he was waiting “anxiously” to be given the all-clear to leave the house.

14. Wow, I'm getting Quite the Reception!

Um, this wouldn't be one of those Twilight Zone scenarios where the new guy is greeted warmly by the locals, but ends up being sacrificed at midnight to the Dark Pagan God they worship, would it?

10. I sympathize with your point, but I'm not sure if he has caught it twice.

I think it more likely that he caught it once and hasn't recovered from the first infection yet. But there is more and more evidence that the antibodies do not last long and it is possible to catch it twice. But not twice in one week.
