Across Brazil, residents have been protesting against President Jair Bolsonaro’s response to the pandemic, by banging pots and pans from their windows.
Bolsonaro recently berated governors and mayors for taking measures to curb the spread of the virus.
That is despite more than 20 members of his own delegation having been infected.
Over 2,400 people have been infected there and 57 have now died.
Brazil is the largest country in both South America and Latin America.
Its capital is Brasília, and its most populous city is São Paulo. The federation is composed of the union of the 26 states and the Federal District. It is the largest country to have Portuguese as an official language and the only one in the Americas, as well as the most populous Roman Catholic-majority country.
Its Amazon basin includes a vast tropical forest, home to diverse wildlife, a variety of ecological systems, and extensive natural resources spanning numerous protected habitats. Brazil is classified as an upper-middle income economy by the World Bank and a newly industrialized country.
