Average Covid cases and deaths fall in the country

The moving average of deaths in Brazil fell by 19.76% and now stands at 69 deaths per day.

Sergipe and the Federal District did not record any deaths.

Brazil recorded 88 deaths and 7,311 cases this Tuesday (11). As a result, the country has lost 687,016 lives and 34,773,515 people have been infected since the beginning of the pandemic.

The average number of cases dropped by 20.02% from two weeks ago and now stands at 5,425.

The country’s data, collected up to 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, 181,805,773 people received at least the first dose of a vaccine against Covid in Brazil. Adding the single doses of Janssen vaccine, there are 170,916,288 people with both doses or one dose of Janssen vaccine.

Thus, the country already has 84.63% of the population with the 1st dose and 79.56% of Brazilians with two doses or one dose of the Janssen vaccine.

To date, 104,745,232 people have taken the third dose, and 34,103,493 the fourth.

Paraíba did not update the vaccination data.

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.
