The governor of the northern Brazilian state of Pará, Helder Barbalho, says he has tested positive for coronavirus.
He tweeted the news shortly after the Rio state Governor Wilson Witzel said that he had contracted the virus.
They called on people to respect the restrictions of movement imposed by their states to curb the spread of the virus.
The lockdown has been criticised by President Jair Bolsonaro, who says the outbreak has been exaggerated.
“I ask you once again to stay at home. As everyone can tell, the disease doesn’t make exceptions for anyone and the contagion is fast,” Governor Witzel said in a message he posted on Twitter.
Mr Witzel said he had the symptoms associated with coronavirus such as fever, sore throat and loss of smell but that he would continue working for the people of his state.
The governor and President Bolsonaro have clashed over their different approaches to the pandemic.
