Brazil recorded 350 deaths from Covid and 39,092 cases of the disease, this Tuesday (26). With this, the country has lost 677,563 lives and 33,660,608 people infected by Sars-CoV-2 since the beginning of the pandemic.
The moving average of cases now stands at 37,510, down 33% from two weeks ago. The average number of deaths now stands at 233 per day, which represents a situation of stability (that is, without variations greater than 15% also in relation to the data from two weeks earlier).
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, 179,738,342 people received at least the first dose of a vaccine against Covid in Brazil. Added to the single doses of Janssen’s vaccine against Covid, there are already 168,830,719 people with both doses or with one dose of Janssen vaccine.
Thus, the country already has 83.67% of the population with the 1st dose and 78.59% of Brazilians with two doses or one dose of the Janssen vaccine.
To date, 100,326,139 people have taken the third dose and 21,507,609 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 64.76%, totaling 13,276,590. In the same age group, 42.04% (8,617,510) 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.
