Brazil coronavirus deaths hit more than 72,000

Brazil has registered 631 more deaths, with a new total of 1,864,681 confirmed cases, Reuters news agency reported quoting the country's health ministry.

Brazil now has an official total of 72,100 deaths as of the end of Sunday, the ministry said.

The numbers of deaths and cases are usually lower on the weekend because of patchy reporting. Experts say the true totals are likely much higher due to a lack of testing.
