Brazil's President Jair Bolsonaro has tested positive for coronavirus.

He took the test, after developing symptoms, including a high temperature.

Bolsonaro has repeatedly played down the risks posed by the virus, calling it "a little flu" and saying that he would not be seriously affected by it.

He has also urged regional governors to ease lockdowns, which he says hurt the economy, and yesterday he watered down regulations on wearing face masks.
