Elsewhere overseas, public opinion in Japan is still highly against holding the Summer Olympics. And, in the U.S., researchers say they’ve made a troubling discovery about a lack of exercise and COVID-19 cases.

Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro is under investigation for his handling of the coronavirus. Brazil's Senate launched a probe into how the president handled the pandemic.

Medical systems around the country have struggled to keep up with the pandemic, especially due to a P1 variant of the virus. Nearly 4,000 Brazilians died from the coronavirus on Tuesday which brought total deaths in the country to 358,000.

When Someone says the number of deaths on a specific day of the week is X, especially if its a Tuesday, that is propaganda and not real news.
