TL;DR Summary

Former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro has been indicted for allegedly falsifying his COVID-19 vaccination data, along with 16 others, to obtain fraudulent vaccination certificates. The indictment accuses Bolsonaro and his aides of tampering with the health ministry’s database to make it appear as though he and his family had received the vaccine. If convicted, Bolsonaro could face up to 12 years in prison. This marks the first indictment for the embattled far-right leader, who faces multiple other investigations, including his alleged involvement in an uprising in Brasilia and his ineligibility to run for office until 2030.
