Addis Ababa, June 20, 2020 (FBC) -Brazil has become the second country in the world to confirm more than one million cases of COVID-19, as the disease continues to spread.
The health ministry also posted a record number of new cases in the past 24 hours – more than 54,000.
In addition, there were more than 1,200 deaths for the fourth consecutive day, taking the total to nearly 49,000.
A lack of testing suggests the true figures are higher and experts say the outbreak is weeks away from its peak, according to BBC.
