Brazil records 9 deaths from Covid-19 in the last 24 hours

by

In the last 24 hours, Brazil recorded nine deaths from Covid-19 and 3,665 new cases of the disease. With that, the country reached 694,909 lives lost and 36,504,006 people infected by Sars-CoV-2.

On weekends and holidays, in addition to notification delays, several states do not update pandemic data, which explains the lower numbers compared to previous days.

Moving averages of deaths are stable compared to data from two weeks ago and falling cases. The average number of deaths is now 137 per day, stability for the third day in a row. The average number of cases is 20,986, down 43%.

The data for the country, collected until 8 pm, are the result of a collaboration between Sheet, UOL, O Estado de S. Paulo, Extra, O Globo and G1 to gather and disseminate numbers related to the coronavirus pandemic. The information is collected daily by the consortium of press vehicles with the state Health Secretariats.

In April of this year, the consortium of press vehicles stopped updating information on vaccination on weekends and holidays. The measure seeks to avoid inaccuracies in the numbers reported to the reader.

The initiative by the consortium of press vehicles occurred in response to the actions of the Jair Bolsonaro (PL) government, which threatened to withhold data, delayed bulletins about the disease and removed information from the air, with the interruption of the disclosure of total cases and deaths.
