Brazil Records Record Daily Coronavirus Toll as Deaths Top 90,000
-----------------------------------------------------------------

Internationally, confirmed coronavirus deaths have topped two-thirds of
a million, with more than 17 million cases reported.

Brazil reported a record one-day death toll of nearly 1,600 Wednesday,
even as far-right President Jair Bolsonaro lifted a ban on foreign
travelers and demanded a rollback of other public health measures.
Brazil's official death toll is 90,000, though public health experts say
the true number is likely much higher.
