The number of victims in the country is the second largest worldwide, after the United States • World Health Organization announced a record number of cases diagnosed in a day
Corona spread in the world: Brazil crossed its 50,000 dead as a result of the virus on Monday. At the same time, the local health ministry reported that the number of verified cases was over one million.
At the same time, experts claim that the real data is much higher than those reported by the authorities because of the lack of conducting tests. Across the continent of Latin America, Brazil has the highest data in terms of image and diagnosed cases of the Corona, with more than a thousand dead per day.

Since the country's rapid outbreak of virus, criticism of President Jair Bolsonaro has been criticized mainly for his decision-making in dealing with the Corona and the fear that the country is facing an economic collapse after years of growth.
In recent months, Bolsanaro has shunned social remoteness, claiming that this could kill employment in the country and is more dangerous than the virus. At the same time, he promoted the use of two anti-malarial drugs as anti-corona therapy, although it has not yet been proven whether they really help.
Last night, the Brazilian president said the military was serving the will of the people and its mission is to protect democracy, a statement that has ignited the debate in recent days about the role of the forces in the face of increasing civilian fear. At the same time as Bolsonaro said, demonstrations continued throughout the state, symbolizing one of the most difficult civilian polarizations experienced by the Latin state.
In the meantime, the World Health Organization announced a new record in the number of diagnosed cases of corona virus around the world when around 183,020 patients were diagnosed yesterday. According to a report by the organization, the largest increase was observed in North and South America with more than 116,000 new cases.
At the same time, the number of global cases stands at more than 8.8 million dead and more than 461,000 victims.
