Bolsonaro Diagnosed With Skin Cancer After Coup Conviction: Reaction and Analysis
Medical tests on Brazil’s former President Jair Bolsonaro revealed the presence of early-stage squamous cell carcinoma, a type of skin cancer. The diagnosis, stemming from the removal of skin lesions, was described as “in situ,” indicating no spread of abnormal cells. Following the diagnosis, Bolsonaro was briefly hospitalized due to symptoms including vomiting and dizziness. He has since been discharged but remains under medical monitoring and the need for periodic reevaluation.
