Related: About this forumCovid-19 vaccine can turn people into crocodiles, bearded woman: Brazil's President
Prashasti Awasthi Mumbai | Updated on December 19, 2020 Published on December 19, 2020
In a scathing attack on Covid-19 vaccine manufacturers, Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro said that Covid-19 vaccine intake could turn people into crocodiles or bearded ladies, as per media reports.
Bolsonaro made the comments while announcing that he would not be vaccinated against the virus. The far-right leader has earlier referred to coronavirus as a little flu.
"In the Pfizer contract, it's very clear: 'we're not responsible for any side effects.' If you turn into a crocodile, it's your problem," Bolsonaro said on Thursday.
Meanwhile, the vaccine is being under trial in Brazil for weeks.
Referring to the drug manufacturers, he said, "If you become superhuman, if a woman starts to grow a beard or if a man starts to speak with an effeminate voice, they will not have anything to do with it."

this potential cure gets more interesting with each new report.
Of course, it comes with the chance I'll turn into a bearded female alligator with an effeminate roar, so there's that, too.
What to do, what to do . . .

Making a tiny hand gun.
Bolsonaro and some of his happy hand gun apprentices.
That's a great song, by the way. The singer/dancer/actor, Ray Bolger, put a lot of work into it. His legs look absolutely boneless!

She hasnt had the vaccine but that is irrelevant.

in order to keep your economy rolling. I cannot understand the leader of a country making such ludicrous, cartoonish attacks on a vaccine that could genuinely accomplish the same thing. WTF?
