Mass test in Brasilia
Mass test will start tomorrow, from 8am to 5pm in some places of  Plano Piloto and Aguas Claras.  These two regions were chosen first because Plano Piloto and Aguas Claras have more detected cases of coronavirus in DF. To avoid agglomeration, people will be tested in the car. But only who has symptoms of cold for at least 7 days will be tested now.
Drive thru coronavirus test:

Did you watch Roberto Carlos live stream yesterday?

Roberto Carlos is a Brazilian icon. He is one of the most beloved artists not only in Brazil, but also in other countries of Latin America. Although almost all the grandmothers in Brazil love him deeply, he has younger fans as well (me included).
