Brazil recorded 110,037 cases of Covid, this Friday (14), the third highest value ever recorded in the entire pandemic.
In the days that lead the number of cases, there was a record of accumulation of dammed data. They were June 23, 2021, with 114,139 cases and September 18 of the same year, with 125,053 infections.
The explosion of Covid cases at the beginning of the year occurs amid the expansion of the omicron in Brazil.
During the month of December, following a hacker attack on the Ministry of Health’s systems, several states reported registration difficulties. Although the Pasta states that the systems were normalized in December, part of the data may be the result of the damming. Even so, the rapid rise in bed occupancy rates for Covid across the country points to the spread and impact of the omni.
The country also recorded 238 deaths from Covid. With this Friday’s data, the country reaches 620,847 lives lost and 22,925,864 people infected since the beginning of the pandemic.
Moving averages are also up substantially from data from two weeks ago. The average number of deaths increased by 42% and reached 138 deaths per day. The average number of cases to 68,160 infections daily, an increase of 743%.
The 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 publish the numbers related to the new coronavirus pandemic. The information is collected by the consortium of press vehicles daily with the state Health Departments.
Vaccination data against Covid-19 is affected by the hacker attack on the Ministry of Health system, which took place in December, with several states without update. In any case, the information was at least partially updated in 13 states and the Federal District.
Brazil registered 711,821 doses of vaccines against Covid-19, this Friday. According to data from the state health departments, there were 32,249 first doses, 123,722 second doses. In addition, 1,576 single doses and 554,274 booster doses were recorded.
In all, 161,868,628 people received at least the first dose of a vaccine against Covid in Brazil — 140,643,014 of them have already received the second dose of the immunizer. Added to the single doses of Janssen’s Covid vaccine, there are already 145,276,962 people with both doses or one dose of Janssen’s vaccine.
Thus, the country already has 75.88% of the population with the 1st dose and 68.10% of Brazilians with both doses or with one dose of the Janssen vaccine. Considering only the adult population, the values are, respectively, 99.86% and 89.63%.
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, experts say.
The initiative by the consortium of press vehicles occurred in response to the attitudes of the Jair Bolsonaro government (without a party), 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 has released conflicting data.
