President Donald Trump has said it is a "badge of honour" for America to "lead" the world with 1.5 million confirmed Coronavirus cases since it means the US is testing more people for the disease that has killed over 300,000 people across the world. The US has 1.5 million confirmed cases and over 91,000 deaths, both the world's highest.

"By the way," he told reporters on Tuesday, "you know when you say that we lead in cases, that's because we have more testing than anybody else." "So when we have a lot of cases... I don't look at that as a bad thing, I look at that as, in a certain respect, as being a good thing because it means our testing is much better."
