 +The US has 4% of the world's population but 25% of its coronavirus cases

 +
 +
 +The US leads the world in cases and deaths Covid-19 reported deaths 
 +
 +The US death toll is more than twice as high as that of the country with the second-highest death rate, Brazil. That South American country has reported more than 57,600 deaths, according to Johns Hopkins University's global case count.
 +
 +Leaders in both countries have continued to downplay the severity of coronavirus. President Donald Trump has **refused to wear masks in public, which research has proven can control the spread of the virus**, and has encouraged businesses to resume operations against the guidance of health officials who believe premature reopenings could lead to surges in cases like the US is seeing now.
 +
 +Brazil President Jair Bolsonaro called coronavirus a "little flu" and maintains that an economic shutdown would be worse for the country than the pandemic. He's also eschewed mask and social distancing guidance in public and has been criticized for underreporting coronavirus deaths.
