Ex-footballer George Forsyth has become the third candidate in Peru's presidential elections Sunday to test positive for the coronavirus, as the country also recorded a record daily death rate. Unlike neighbor Chile, which had also been due to hold elections on Sunday but postponed them in the face of the health crisis, Peru's president has decided to push ahead, and some 25 million people are eligible to go out and vote. x With a week to go, Peru on Saturday reported a record daily 294 coronavirus deaths. And on Sunday, Forsyth's entourage announced he had tested positive for Covid-19 after developing symptoms during a tour of the north of the country.
