Two days earlier, Brazil overtook Russia as the world’s No. 2 coronavirus hotspot after the United States. Washington’s ban applies to foreigners traveling to the United States if they had been in Brazil in the last two weeks. Brazil has 374,898 cases, behind the U.S. with 1.637 million. Total deaths in the U.S. has reached 97,988, according to Reuters tally, compared with Brazil at 23,473.

The travel ban was a blow to right-wing Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro, who has followed the example of U.S. President Donald Trump in addressing the pandemic, fighting calls for social distancing and touting unproven drugs.

Sad :(

Obviously do not like.....

In Brazil we are fine. the number is increasing as we now test more, until then we didn't have as many tests for Covid. Pesquisa mais Reuters shows hospitals that are going bankrupt for lack of patients

Don’t worry, the mayor is now being investigated for corruption because he bought ventilators 4 times the price and opened all those graves and called the media for an interview and drones pictures ! Leftists media are the most disgusting liars ! Incredible

I am ectastic to see Reuters come out in favor of more strict border controls... I know you have only taken this position because it opposes Trump, but that is still a net positive. :)

🥺😔That sight of grave digging is💔💔💔💔

There's this thing called quarantine, you tell immigrants to certify that they have been isolating for 2 weeks before arrival and have them show you a negative result on the COVID-19 test. This is known as being reasonable.

Both countries are run by right-wingers. Can you connect the dots? LOL.

2 whole days 😯! WOW

Nowhere is safe nowadays 😞

Ban Brazil, open the beaches. If anyone is going to kill us it will be ourselves!

Have they surpassed our total losses?

getting hit hard brazil now with the virus

Never trust Trump.

Another racist ban. Open the borders now. Fauci gave the green light. Let's not be anti science, shall we?
