Brazil records 197 deaths from Covid and more than 21 thousand cases

by

Brazil recorded 197 deaths from Covid and 21,398 cases of the disease, this Thursday (25). As a result, the country has lost 683,328 lives and 34,348,213 people infected with Sars-CoV-2 since the beginning of the pandemic.

The moving average of deaths completed ten days of decline (to be considered, the variation must be greater than 15% compared to the data of two weeks before). It is now 150 a day, down 31% from two weeks earlier.

The moving average of cases has been falling for 35 days and is now 15,108, a value 35% lower than that recorded two weeks ago.

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, 180,629,980 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 169,974,408 people with both doses or with one dose of Janssen vaccine.

Thus, the country already has 84.08% of the population with the 1st dose and 79.12% of Brazilians with two doses or one dose of the Janssen vaccine.

To date, 102,067,963 people have taken the third dose and 27,578,791 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 52.48% and the one that received the second dose is 34.98%.

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 released conflicting data.
