SAO PAULO, March 13 (Reuters) – Brazil’s imprisoned former President Jair Bolsonaro was hospitalized in an intensive care unit on Friday after being diagnosed with bronchopneumonia, according to a medical note from the DF Star hospital shared by his wife on social media.

Bolsonaro was taken to the hospital early on Friday with a high fever, chills and a drop in oxygen saturation, the note said. He is being treated with antibiotics.
