India Today
Bolsonaro, who is serving a 27-year prison sentence for attempting a coup following the 2022 election, was transferred to hospital after developing fever, chills and low oxygen levels.
Brazil's former President Jair Bolsonaro has pneumonia and is receiving treatment in an intensive care unit, a hospital in the capital, Brasilia, said Friday. One of his doctors, Brasil Caiado, told journalists that the 70-year-old's medical situation was serious.
"Pneumonia in patients over 70 is always serious because it can progress to septicemia, since the bacteria can normally enter the bloodstream and cause an even more severe condition," Caiado said.
Earlier in the day, Bolsonaro's eldest son Flavio said on X that his father was being transferred from prison to a hospital after waking up with chills and vomiting.
"I ask for prayers that it not be anything serious," Flavio wrote. Flavio Bolsonaro has said he will run for president this year, and recent polls show him and President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva almost tied.
