9.180,875 infected and 130,000-150,000 new cases every day (Monday in particular +138,975), is the picture that shows the COVID-19 pandemic when the 2020 solstice day arrives: in many countries that have arrived later the pandemic is in full offense, those who arrived earlier (Europeans, by the way) do not manage to eliminate it completely even though the hot days of summer.

Of the 9 million confirmed cases of coronavirus, 2.3 have been recorded in Europe, 2.7 in North America, 1.8 in South America, 1.9 in Asia, 0.3 million in Africa and only 9,000 in the islands of Oceania. By country, it is the two most positive in the world that have suffered the most: United States with 2.3 million infections, 122,000 deaths and Brazil with 1.1 million infections, 51,000 deaths.

In the ranking, the people in the following positions present very different proportions of positive mortality, which indicates that the so-called "contagion" and "positive" parts basically cover the different situations. For example, Russia has so far accumulated 8,000 deaths with almost 600,000 positive, India with 440,000 positive accumulates 14,000 deaths... and the United Kingdom with 305,000 positive accumulates 42,000 deaths, Spain 293,000 positive and 28,000 deaths, etc.
