Mario Frias suffered a heart attack on Monday and was taken to Santa Lucia Hospital, in Brasilia, where, according to the column of journalist Leo Dias, on the Metrópoles portal, the former private secretary for culture in Bolsonaro’s government and a pre-candidate for the Vice-Federal Government of São Paulo made several demands in an arrogant tone. .
The column notes that Frias has one of operator Amil’s most basic plans, admitted in the ICU, and was pissed off when he learned he wouldn’t have the right to a private bathroom. “Does everyone use that bathroom? But I’m Mario Frias,” he would tell a hospital employee.
In connection with the report, the hospital consultant did not respond at the time of publication.
Frias underwent a catheterization and there is still no expectation of discharge from the hospital. He is still recovering and without disturbances, according to a hospital bulletin issued at 4 p.m. He has been admitted to the coronary care unit.
Frias already had a heart attack when he was part of Jair Bolsonaro’s government, in December of last year. He also underwent a catheterization after being taken to the hospital on this occasion. Less than six months later, the actor was taken to the hospital again, with acute angina.
The second episode, according to the candidate himself, has nothing to do with the heart. The secretary said at the time, “It was a groin surgery that I eventually had that made me feel terrified, because of some medication I took to get rid of the pain, I ended up feeling bad.”
In both episodes, it took a few days to return to the office of the Special Secretariat for Culture.
