Fake

Ok but compare deaths per million inhabitants

They have a follower of Trump. America first, Brazil second. No surprise. UK? Sorry, you are the third one. Everyone is happy.

Drag the President to isolation centres. Keep him there for 2 weeks and thank me later.

Manchete irresponsável

图片是象征白人把黑人像病菌一样消灭掉?

Ohhh and its nowhere near from being over...

Brazil is going to have hard time beating Trump on killing it's citizens.

In Nominal terms only. Not as a percentage of total population (Brazil 3X UK). Please do not play around with so sensitive data just for sensationalism purposes.

Um governo que nada faz pra enfrentar esse problema... estamos todos a deriva, infelizmente! O Brasil pede socorro!

The picture almost triggered BlackLivesMatter in my mind :D

Common. This is the picture you choose to feature for your report. Come on do better.

Second highest declared/reported death toll. Presuming that reported numbers are reality is a tad dumb!

German Official Leaks Report Denouncing Corona as ‘A Global False Alarm’ —

We had the upper hand. Politics stood in the way, as a result, we're losing the battle for now. We're between the devil and the deep blue.

Brazil surges to second in coronavirus cases worldwide.

Rueters have got some great news 'togs.

Brazil coronavirus death toll passes 25000.

But, they had a kickin Mardi Gras carnaval.

Wow, so sad

After four months of covid this was long due, given Brazil has 3 times the population, now, wasn’t it?

😢

Two crazy Presidents, most cases and deaths! US and Brazil

ggreenwald Turns out reuters still doesn't understand how to calculate death per capita. Deaths per 1 million: Belgium: 832 UK: 611 Spain: 580 Italy: 566 Sweden: 481 France: 450 USA: 353 Ireland: 345 Switzerland: 224 Canada: 213 Brazil: 197

Maybe drawing is easier to understand. Is that fair comparison?
