Brazil’s former president Jair Bolsonaro has been admitted Monday to a hospital in the state of Florida, in the far southeastern United States, after complaining of severe abdominal pain.
According to the Brazilian newspaper ‘O Globo’, the former president has been admitted to the AdventHealth Celebration hospital, located on the outskirts of the city of Orlando.
Bolsonaro was the victim of a stabbing in the abdomen during the 2018 election campaign. After this attack he has had to undergo up to four surgeries.
However, the former president has suffered several episodes of abdominal pain, for which he has had to be hospitalized on successive occasions, most recently in mid-November, when he was admitted to the Armed Forces Hospital in Brasilia.
This latest hospitalization of Bolsonaro comes just one day after hundreds of supporters stormed the seat of state powers in Brasilia, in an episode similar to that experienced on January 6, 2021 at the U.S. Capitol.
