Thousands of people angry at the slow rollout of vaccines take to the streets in cities across Brazil.
In Brasilia, protesters marched alongside a giant plastic doll of the president. Placards demanded his impeachment and called for more vaccines and emergency financial aid. There were also calls to better protect indigenous people and to stop deforestation of the Amazon.Protesters in Brasilia had a wide-range of grievances against the government
In some cities, demonstrators laid thousands of symbolic crosses in tribute to those who died in the pandemic. Dr Dimas Covas said that in August last year, Butantan offered to supply the government with 100 million doses of the CoronaVac vaccine, which the institute manufactures under licence from China's Sinovac. He said the proposal included a pledge to deliver the first five million doses by the beginning of December.
