More fear-mongering from the Liberal media. You people are truly sick!

Lies

Stop with the fear porn already

They have similar President with Trump, Latin trump

'Wearing a mask is not about protecting yourself, it's about protecting others' .. Along with very early lockdown, that's one of the main reasons Vietnam, a country of ninety million people, has ZERO deaths compared to America's ONE HUNDRED thousand!

prefer staying safe to restarting the economy prematurely.

Vague

The President of Brazil make us worries.

Death's are a lagging indicator. If death's are peaking now, the infections are likely 2 to 3 weeks old. God media is full of idiots.

FakeNewsMedia ScumPress coronavirusbrasil LiesLiesLies

Your fear mongering doesn’t work anymore.

Did it ever actually close? Bolsonaro wussed out within a couple of days. Hence ensuring thousands would die.

Terribly misleading headline. The US peaked at nearly 6000 whereas Brazil peaked at 1,188 four days ago.

Just FYI if you're talking about Brazil, then probably you should also mention about Belgium which in relative terms is almost 8 times higher than the death rate in Brazil.

What's the percentage who actually died from cv19? ABC you do know Brazil has big population, don't you? Enough with plandemic scare scam!

Really. Who can believe the main stream media after they have been caught lying so many times. Anyone who opposes the official Covid narrative is censored, including medical doctors.

How about as a proportion of population? You are just as dumb as SBSNews with this raw score-keeping nonsense.

4th world leadership......They should shoot the leader.
