RIO DE JANEIRO – Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro said Saturday that he had cured the coronavirus and appeared to have suffered only mild symptoms of a plague that decreased importance as it spread across the country, killing more than 86,000 people.

“GOOD DAY FOR ALL THE WORLD,” Bolsonaro, 65, posted in a Twitter message on Saturday morning, with the news that her coronavirus had turned her negative.

The message included a photo of the president giving the impression of smiling and raising his thumb brandishing a box of hydroxychloroquine pills, the antimalarial drug. Bolsonaro praised the drug as a miracle cure, despite the growing clinical consensus that it is not effective in treating Covid-19, the disease caused by coronavirus.
