Outraged Ecuadorians have taken to social media to show the horrific conditions they are being forced to endure through the coronavirus pandemic. A nation in total lockdown, Ecuador has only reported 146 deaths as of April 2 in a nation with over 16 million people, but citizens are portraying a country on the brink of collapse.
