Brazil Suddenly cancels the cumulative number of infected and dead people New Corona 8:09 on June 8
In Brazil, South America, where new coronavirus infections are spreading rapidly, the government stopped publishing cumulative numbers of infected and dead on the 6th. Local media and others are criticizing the situation for making it less visible.
In Brazil, infections are rapidly expanding, especially in overcrowded poor areas, with more than 670,000 people, the second largest in the world after the United States.
The Brazilian Ministry of Health has been updating the cumulative total of infected and dead people every day on its website so far, but suddenly stopped publishing these numbers on the 6th, instead displaying the number of recovered people newly. It became like this.
Although the Department of Health hasn't clarified the reason, President Bolsonaro often says that “the governors are overreporting the damages to get the budget” about the rapid increase in the number of infected and dead people. I was arguing.
Local media and some citizens have been criticizing the fact that the cumulative number of infected people has not been published, as they try to obscure the seriousness of the situation.
President Bolsonaro has been criticized both domestically and internationally for his reluctance to prevent new coronavirus infections.
On the 5th, he said that the WHO = World Health Organization was "politically biased" and suggested that he could withdraw from the US following the US.
