CORONAVIRUS:
Brazil has registered more than 75,000 deaths from COVID-19, and is close to reaching the milestone figure of 2 million cases. Both numbers are the world's second-highest totals, behind those of the U.S., though the true figures are believed to be higher because of a lack of widespread testing.
