First it was Michigan, then North Carolina and now Minnesota, Utah, Ohio, Kentucky and Texas are added. Groups of conservatives and supporters of President Donald Trump are protesting before their governors so that the measures of confinement are lifted in the framework of the pandemic, which already registers more than 670,000 contagions and has killed more than 33,000 people in the United States. The protesters above all allege financial reasons for their request. In this Round we also discussed the University of Chicago clinical trial that would have achieved recovery of covid-19 patients in just one week. It's called "Remdesivir" and it was created to fight Ebola, although without success. The good thing about the drug, created by Gillead Laboratories, is that it hardly has any counterproductive effects, according to the manufacturer. From Chicago we go to Brazil, where President Jair Bolsonaro continues to press for the country's economic sector to open as soon as possible. Bolsonaro has been widely criticized for its slowness in dealing with the pandemic and his health minister was fired this Thursday due to continuous discrepancies he maintained with the president. And this Friday's round ends in Bogotá where the police go from neighborhood to neighborhood encouraging inmates in the apartments to exercise and even dance zumba. It is the Global Round of the Coronavirus by Miguel Ángel Antoñanzas.
