  • Brazil's industrial production nosedived by 18.8 percent in April from the month before as the coronavirus pandemic shut down Latin America's largest economy, official figures released Wednesday show. It was a 27.2 percent drop compared to April 2019, and the deepest monthly decline since 2002 when the official statistics agency IBGE began tracking industrial production. Brazil, which has emerged as one of the countries hit hardest by the pandemic, is facing a painful recession this year as a result. The economy shrank 1.5 percent in the first quarter of 2020. The government is forecasting a contraction of 4.7 percent for the year, but many economists predict the decline will be even worse, setting a new annual record. Industrial output had shrunk by 9.1 percent from February to March, as the effects of coronavirus stay-at-home measures began to be felt. Unemployment has meanwhile risen sharply: 4.9 million jobs were lost from February to April, bringing the unemployment rate to 12.6 percent, IBGE said last week. Economists are predicting the rate will hit 18 percent by the end of the year. Brazil's death toll from the new coronavirus passed the 30,000 mark Tuesday to hit 31,199, with more than 555,000 confirmed infections. That is the second-highest caseload in the world, after the United States. Experts say under-testing means the real figures are probably much higher. js/rsr/jhb/jm
