Brazil’s capital has entered a two-week lockdown, joining several states in adopting measures to reduce the spread of the CCP virus as intensive care beds begin to fill in some important cities.

At least eight Brazilian states adopted curfews over the past week due to the rise in cases and deaths from COVID-19, the disease caused by the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus. Thursday was Brazil’s deadliest day since the beginning of the pandemic, with 1,541 deaths confirmed from the virus. So far 254,000 people have died overall.
