WHO marks big increase in infections in Brazil in last 24 hours

Coronavirus cases are now peaking in some large, populous countries at the same time, only partly due to increased testing, with a big increase in Brazil, the World Health Organization's Mike Ryan said on Monday.

"(There's) certainly been a spike in cases (in Brazil) in the last 24 hours," he told an online briefing. He said there were "worrying increases" throughout Latin America.
