Brazilian health workers have urged the International Criminal Court to investigate President Jair Bolsonaro's government for crimes against humanity over its handling of the coronavirus pandemic, according to AFP.
A dossier of evidence was handed to the Hague-based court by a group of unions that claim to represent more than one million healthcare staff in Brazil, which has the world's highest virus death count after the United States.
In a statement, the unions accused Bolsonaro's administration of being “criminally negligent in its management of the Covid-19 pandemic — risking the lives of healthcare professionals and of members of the Brazilian society".
