“Throughout the day, he sat on the bed and began assisted deambulation, with no forecast of the intensive care unit discharge,” added the document, signed by six doctors.

The head of the team who operated the former president, doctor Claudio Birolini, said earlier that Bolsonaro’s surgery was complex and delicate due to previous operations in the same region in recent years, after he had a stabbed in September 2018 during an event of the election campaign in Juiz de Fora (MG).
