Many hard-hit countries are easing lockdowns put in place to slow the spread of the novel virus, while others, such as China and Australia, implement another round of shutdowns in response to a resurgence in infections. Experts say alterations to work and social life could last until a vaccine is available.

There have been more than 546,000 deaths linked to the virus so far, within the same range as the number of yearly influenza deaths reported worldwide. The first death was reported on Jan. 10 in Wuhan, China before infections and fatalities surged in Europe and then later in the United States. Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro tested positive for coronavirus after downplaying the seriousness of the pandemic. The country has reported between 20,000 and 50,000 new cases daily since July 1. Brazil has more than 1.7 million cases and nearly 68,000 deaths.

Our govt's have proven they can't even COUNT. So if they can't count, who the Hell knows WHAT they're counting. What we DO know is that under govt. control and intentional failure our world is going to shht.

DAMN! I think I retweeted 11 Million cases yesterday, or the day before... this is STILL spreading FAST. COVID19 coronovirus over 12 million cases!!

It must be Trump’s fault.

more numbers that mean nothing, give me recovery % or fatalities.

I Pray for all.

And the United States alone is responsible for 1/4 of the world's cases. 😞

The number of Global Active cases is still increasing at +6% in the last 7 days.

It's 2020...more things change, more they stay same. You'd like to think it was pure ignorance that killed so many with Spanish Flu. However, today there are so many advancements/what has it gained us? Disobedience is what brings us here. With same knowledge, happen in 1918 too?

RIP

Fake news.

Wait till august 15th when India will release Covaccine. It will be cheap and effective. & other western propaganda arms will scream & rave and rant against it because it is cheap and dreams of making money by exploitation by MNCs will become difficult. Wait for August 1
