Twitter removes two Brazilian Pres Bolsonaro tweets questioning quarantine
BRASILIA, March 30 (NNN-AGENCIES) — Two tweets by Brazilian president Jair Bolsonaro in which he questioned quarantine measures aimed at containing the coronavirus were removed, on the grounds that they violated the social network’s rules.
The far-right leader had posted several videos in which he flouted his government’s social distancing guidelines by mixing with supporters on the streets of Brasilia and urging them to keep the economy going.
Two of the posts were removed Sunday and replaced with a notice explaining why they had been taken down.
