(BBC)-Brazil has reported more than 1,000 deaths in a single day from Coronavirus for the first time amid warnings the outbreak is weeks away from its peak.

The country has 271,628 confirmed cases but the true number is likely to be higher because of insufficient testing.

Far-right President Jair Bolsonaro has repeatedly played down the risks of Covid-19.

Bolsonaro is obviously more cavalier and irresponsible than most Leaders around the World, he has contempt for the poor and colored people of Brazil, but this was known before he was elected, like America, Brazil will pay for electing such a President.
