Brazil:
The coronavirus death toll in Brazil has surpassed 20,000 after another record number of fatalities in a 24-hour period, the health ministry said. The country is the epicentre of the outbreak in Latin America, and its highest one-day toll of 1,188 has pushed the overall death tally to 20,047. Brazil has now recorded more than 310,000 cases, with experts saying a lack of testing means the real figures are probably much higher.
Russia:
Russia has reported its highest ever daily coronavirus death toll of 150, even though the number of new infections fell below 9,000 for the third day in a row. Health officials reported a total of 3,249 deaths and 326,448 cases, the second-highest number of infections in the world after the United States.
There were 8,894 new cases in the last 24 hours, according to a government tally, while 7,144 people recovered.
