Coronavirus: Bodies 'left to rot' on the streets of Ecuador

WARNING: This report contains footage of a dead body.

Ecuador recorded its first case of coronavirus at the end of February - and it is now the virus's South American epicentre. The country has over 26,000 cases and workers say they have been 'overwhelmed'.

The IMF has approved pandemic aid for Ecuador of over half a billion pounds as President Lenin Moreno remains under pressure to default on country's debt.
