Brazil recorded 188 deaths from Covid and 19,193 cases of the disease, this Monday (8). As a result, the country has lost 680,239 lives and 34,034,656 people infected with Sars-CoV-2 since the beginning of the pandemic.
On weekends, Mondays and holidays, pandemic data are usually lower, due to notification delays.
The moving average of cases remains down and now stands at 25,407 infections per day, down 32% from two weeks ago. The average number of deaths, in turn, remained stable (no variations of more than 15%, also in relation to two weeks before) and now stands at 207 deaths 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, 180,138,644 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 169,318,225 people with both doses or one dose of Janssen’s vaccine.
Thus, the country already has 83.85% of the population with the 1st dose and 78.82% of Brazilians with two doses or one dose of the Janssen vaccine.
So far, 101,823,074 people have taken the third dose and 23,437,269 the fourth.
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 51.1% and the one that received the second dose is 32.93%.
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.
