by

Brazil recorded 155 deaths from Covid and 46,564 cases of the disease, this Monday (11). As a result, the country has lost 673,814 lives and 32,939,828 people infected with Sars-CoV-2 since the beginning of the pandemic.

The moving average of deaths continues to grow and is now 245 deaths per day, up 17% from two weeks ago.

The average number of cases remains stable, that is, without variation of more than 15%, also in relation to the data from two weeks ago. It now stands at 57,647 infections per day.

The country data, collected up to 8 pm, are the result of collaboration between Sheet, UOL, O Estado de S. Paulo, Extra, O Globo and G1 to gather and publish figures related to the coronavirus pandemic. The information is collected by the consortium of press vehicles daily with the State Health Departments.

In all, 179,390,049 people received at least the first dose of a vaccine against Covid in Brazil. Added to the single doses of Janssen’s Covid vaccine, there are already 168,091,094 people with both doses or with one dose of Janssen vaccine.

Thus, the country already has 83.50% of the population with the 1st dose and 78.24% of Brazilians with two doses or one dose of the Janssen vaccine.

So far, 95,699,145 people have taken the third dose and 18,629,511 the fourth.

The consortium also gathers the record of vaccine doses administered to children. The population aged 5 to 11 years partially immunized (with only the first dose of vaccine received) is 64%, totaling 13,120,290. In the same age group, 40.59% (8,321,739) received the second dose or the single dose.

Even those who received both doses or one dose of the Janssen vaccine should maintain basic care, such as wearing a mask and social distancing, say experts.

The initiative of the consortium of press vehicles occurred in response to the attitudes of the Jair Bolsonaro (PL) government, which threatened to withhold data, delayed newsletters about the disease and took information from the air, with the interruption of the disclosure of the totals of cases and deaths. In addition, the government has released conflicting data.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
