Brazil has recorded its highest number of coronavirus deaths in a day as Latin America began to feel the full force of the pandemic, while the World Health Organization agreed to investigate its response to the crisis.

With infections rapidly approaching five million, deaths topping 320,000 and the global economy devastated, there are fears that the worst is yet to come for the poorer parts of the world as they desperately try to contain the spread of the virus.

Infections in Brazil, already the third highest globally, were also climbing by the thousands, with the outbreak in the world's sixth-largest country expected to accelerate and not peak until early June. There have been warnings about the impact of the pandemic on the least privileged communities, and World Bank chief David Malpass said that up to 60 million people could be "pushed into extreme poverty".

Interim Health Minister Eduardo Pazuello, an active duty army general, authorised the modified protocol after two trained doctors left the ministry's top job under pressure to promote early use of chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine.

president bolsonaro: 'what do you want me to do about it?'

One would imagine would have reported full details whilst making sure we, the public, know NOT to take Hydroxycloroquine!! Is it not the case that Brazil patients were given 3x normal dose of 400mg? Are you afraid of public objecting to vaccine? Shameful “reporting”

we´re living a tragic reality
