Brazil numbers are such a question mark for me, already top 2 in cases while being one of the countries with less tests in the top 20. All this while having around 210(?) million people. I sure hope it's actually them containing it well but after listening to bolsonaro and having 3 different health ministers in short time feels like their numbers are not even close to reality.

The differnce is most other places the outbreak isn't as bad.
Brazil tested 870,000 people, confirmed cases over 414,000.
~48% of the people the test, have the virus.
Now imagine if they tested as much as other countries do? (Brazil test pr 1m people = ~4100, other countries its 50,000-100,000)
(pretty sure they would have alot more cases confirmed, than the USA does)
Basically Brazil isnt doing anything to try and stop the spread, so its just everywhere.
I wouldnt be surprised if actually like 1/7 of brazil was infected (~15%).

Yeah I was aware of the numbers, I'm from Chile so I have been following them closely. It might be that they are severely undertesting or that's actually just the amount of people that felt sick, but with a country so big + Bolsonaro being so carefree about it and calling it a "resfriadinho" I doubt it.
I think the amount of death seems fine given their number of confirmed cases though, we will have to wait a couple months to have a better picture.
