The catastrophic conditions in Brazil’s clinics sparked protests. As more and more people die of Covid-19, calls for the president to step down are getting louder. Even patient oxygen is becoming scarce in clinics in the state of Amazonas. Dramatic conditions in the hospitals in the state of Amazonas have sparked new protests against the Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro. In megacities like Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo or Brasília, numerous people went to their balconies on Friday evening, hit pots with spoons and shouted “Bolsonaro, step back”. Similar protests last took place in mid-2020 at the first peak of the Corona crisis.

The state of Amazonas in northwestern Brazil, where the health system collapsed last April and May and the dead had to be buried in mass graves, has been groaning again for a few weeks under the increasing number of infections. The intensive care units are full, and many clinics no longer have any oxygen to ventilate seriously ill patients. Not only corona patients are affected, but also babies born prematurely.

Reports of suffocating patients and desperate relatives who themselves bring oxygen bottles to clinics for sick relatives are causing horror across the country. In Manaus, the capital of the Amazon, dozens of people queued up on Friday to get oxygen. “This one is for my grandma,” said a man who was taking a huge green oxygen bottle with him. With more than 208,000 dead, Brazil is the country in the world hardest hit by the corona pandemic after the USA. The right-wing extremist President Bolsonaro, who has been criticized for months because of his crisis management, has always downplayed the danger posed by the virus and recently repeatedly expressed doubts about vaccinations. On Friday, his government announced that it would deliver oxygen to Manaus and fly patients to other states.
