Original review summary

The review says the video misleadingly presents Mayor Jairo Jorge’s earlier statement that nine ICU patients died in Canoas as proof that Paulo Pimenta spread misinformation. Jorge made that statement on May 4 and corrected it the next day, saying two people had died; the video was posted on May 11, after the correction.[S1]
