Brazil president fined for not wearing mask

-

Brazil’s president Jair Bolsonaro led thousands of motorcycli­st supporters through Sao Paulo on Saturday – and got fined for not wearing a mask.

The conservati­ve waved to the crowd from his motorcycle and later from atop a sound truck, where helmeted but largely maskless backers cheered and chanted as he insisted that masks were useless for those already vaccinated. The state government press office said a $110 (£78) fine would be imposed.
