The grandmother of First Lady Michelle Bolsonaro, Maria Aparecida Firmo Ferreira, 80, died at dawn on Wednesday (12). She died due from Covid-19 complications. The Federal District Health Department confirmed her death.
Maria Aparecida Firmo Ferreira was admitted to the infirmary of the Ceilândia Regional Hospital, in the Federal District. She did not resist a cardiopulmonary arrest.
Folha sought the Planalto Palace to determine whether President Jair Bolsonaro or Michelle Bolsonaro would comment but did not receive a response until the publication of this report.
