The moving average of deaths was down 20% from two weeks ago. As on Wednesday, it is 183 deaths per day.

The moving average of cases remains stable, with no variations greater than 15%, also in relation to data from two weeks ago. It now stands at 8,309 daily infections.

Country data, collected up to 8 pm, are the result of collaboration between leaf, UOL, O Estado de S. Paulo, Extra, O Globo and G1 to gather and disseminate the numbers related to the pandemic of the new coronavirus. The information is collected daily by the consortium of press vehicles with the state Health Departments.

Vaccination data against Covid-19, also collected by the consortium, were updated in 23 states and the Federal District.​

Brazil registered 1,289,105 doses of vaccines against Covid-19, this Thursday. According to data from the state health departments, there were 112,168 first doses, 663,266 second doses. In addition, 1,203 single doses and 512,468 booster doses were recorded.

In all, 159,967,663 people received at least the first dose of a vaccine against Covid in Brazil —134,261,837 of them have already received the second dose of the immunizing agent. Added to the single doses of Janssen’s vaccine against Covid, there are already 138,844,928 people with both doses or one dose of Janssen’s vaccine.​

Thus, the country already has 74.99% of the population with the 1st dose and 65.09% of Brazilians with two doses or one dose of Janssen vaccine. Considering only the adult population, the values ​​are, respectively, 98.69% and 85.66%​​.

Even those who received two doses or one dose of Janssen’s vaccine must maintain basic care, such as wearing a mask and social distance, experts say

The initiative of the consortium of press vehicles took place in response to the attitudes of the Jair Bolsonaro (non-party) government, which threatened to withhold data, delayed bulletins about the disease and took information off the air, with the interruption of the dissemination of total cases and deaths. In addition, the government released conflicting data.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
