Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro has again tested positive for the new coronavirus. His office announced that he would extend his two-week quarantine and suspend upcoming travel plans. Bolsonaro has been in self-isolation in the presidential palace in Brasilia since first testing positive for the virus on July 7. Bolsonaro has famously compared the virus to a "little flu" and attacked stay-at-home measures and other guidelines from public-health officials. "President Jair Bolsonaro's health continues to improve, under the treatment of the presidential medical team," his office said in a statement. "A (new coronavirus) test carried out yesterday on the president came back positive."
