Jair Bolsonaro health and legal status

Overview

Former President Jair Bolsonaro is currently serving a sentence of 27 years and three months under house arrest, a measure authorized for health reasons following a previous hospitalization.

A medical bulletin submitted to the Supreme Federal Court reported that on October 2, Bolsonaro experienced brief episodes of tachycardia and shortness of breath. While the report noted he maintained cardiorespiratory and hemodynamic stability, it also mentioned side effects from medications, including daytime sleepiness and chronic instability in body balance.

By early November, Senator-elect Carlos Bolsonaro reported a perceived improvement in his father’s health, describing him as a “strong man” during a visit. This personal update followed the departure of Flávio Bolsonaro to the United States, though no official medical reports were provided to substantiate the improvement.
