RIO DE JANEIRO—Brazil passed 1 million CCP virus cases on Friday and approached 50,000 deaths.
Brazil confirmed its first case of the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus, also known as the novel coronavirus, on Feb. 26. The virus has spread relentlessly across the continent-sized country, eroding support for right-wing President Jair Bolsonaro and raising fears of economic collapse after years of anemic growth.
