Brazil recorded, this Wednesday (14), 122 deaths from Covid and 11,300 cases of the disease. As a result, the country has lost 685,179 lives and 34,602,662 people infected with the coronavirus since the beginning of the pandemic.
The moving average of deaths is at 71 per day, down 44% from 14 days ago. The moving average of cases is 8,121 — a 61% decrease from the number 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, 180,994,247 people received at least the first dose of a vaccine against Covid in Brazil. Adding the single doses of Janssen vaccine, there are 170,390,826 people with both doses or one dose of Janssen vaccine.
Thus, the country already has 84.25% of the population with the 1st dose and 79.31% of Brazilians with two doses or one dose of the Janssen vaccine.
To date, 103,403,552 people have taken the third dose, and 29,364,288 the fourth.
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.
