In Johannesburg, South Africa, a government-run hospital has moved COVID-19 patients into a parking lot after all available beds filled to capacity.

In Lebanon, officials have ordered an 11-day, 24-hour curfew, beginning Thursday. The order sparked panic buying at grocery stores, with fears that crowded markets will lead to further community spread.

Meanwhile, Portuguese President Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa announced Monday he tested positive for coronavirus and was isolating at his official residence in Lisbon without symptoms.
