Brazil recorded 214 deaths from Covid and 25,449 cases of the disease, this Monday (1). As a result, the country has lost 678,792 lives and 33,856,805 people infected with Sars-CoV-2 since the beginning of the pandemic.
The moving average of cases remains down (38.04% compared to two weeks ago) and now stands at 33,613 infections per day. The death rate also dropped. It is at 226 per day, 8.87% lower compared to the same period.
Acre, Ceará, Mato Grosso do Sul and Roraima did not record any deaths.
The country’s data, collected until 8 pm, are the result of a collaboration between Folha, UOL, O Estado de S. Paulo, Extra, O Globo and G1 to gather and disseminate figures related to the coronavirus pandemic. The information is collected by the consortium of press vehicles daily with the State Health Departments.
In all, 179,965,430 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 169,059,884 people with both doses or with one dose of Janssen vaccine.
Thus, the country already has 83.77% of the population with the 1st dose and 78.7% of Brazilians with two doses or one dose of the Janssen vaccine.
So far, 100,972,313 people have taken the third dose and 22,257,377 the fourth.
Amapá has not updated vaccination.
The consortium also gathers the record of vaccine doses administered to children. With the expansion of the age group that can receive the vaccine against Covid, the consortium now presents the population from 3 to 11 years old immunized. In this range, the partially immunized share (with only the first dose of vaccine received) is 50.61% and the one that received the second dose is 32.50%.
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.
