Summary
The coronavirus has now reached every continent on earth except for Antarctica after Brazil confirmed its first case.On Tuesday, Brazil's ministry of health confirmed that a man in São Paulo had tested positive for COVID-19, according to Reuters.The 61-year-old male returned to São Paulo from Lombardy, Italy, on February 21, the ministry said. This is the first confirmed case in South America, leaving Antarctica the only continent without a registered case.Cases have been reported in Asia, Europe, North America, South America, Australia and Oceania, and Africa.It is unsurprising that Antarctica is yet to register a case.
