\n RIO DE JANEIRO \u2014 Brazil, the world\u2019s No. 2 coronavirus hot spot after the United States, officially passed 50,000 coronavirus deaths on Sunday, a blow for a country already grapp<\/a>ling with more than 1 million cases, rising political instability and a crippled economy.<\/p>\n

Brazil now has a total of 1,085,038 confirmed cases and 50,617 deaths, up from 49,976 on Saturday, the Health Ministry said. Experts say the true numbers are a lot higher because of a lack of widespread testing. Latin America\u2019s largest country has typically recorded more than 1,000 deaths a day, but usually registers fewer on the weekends.<\/p>\n

Brazil confirmed its first case of the novel coronavirus on Feb. 26 and passed 1 million cases on Friday. Since first arriving in the country, the virus\u2019 rapid spread has eroded support for right-wing President Jair Bolsonaro and has raised fears of economic collapse after years of anemic growth.<\/p>\n

Bolsonaro, sometimes called the \u201cTropical Trump,\u201d has been widely criticized for his handling of the crisis. The country still has no permanent health minister after losing two since April, following clashes with the president.<\/p>\n

Bolsonaro has shunned social<\/a> distancing, calling it a job-killing measure more dangerous than the virus itself. He has also promoted two anti-malarial drugs as remedies, chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine, despite little evidence they work.<\/p>\n

On Sunday, Bolsonaro said the military serves the will of the people and its mission is to defend democracy, adding fuel to a raging debate about the armed forces\u2019 role amid rumbling fears of political fragility.<\/p>\n

His comments came on the same day his supporters and detractors gathered in cities across the country, in a stark symbol of the polarization in Latin America\u2019s largest country.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
