Brazil recorded 76,345 cases of Covid, this Monday (17). As a result, the moving average reached 75,253 infections per day, up 662% from two weeks ago. At that time, the average, already growing, was 9,874 cases per day.
The country also recorded 162 deaths. Brazil thus reaches 621,261 lives lost and 23,083,297 people infected since the beginning of the pandemic.
Acre did not update its pandemic data.
On Sundays, Mondays and holidays, the pandemic data are usually lower, due to notification delays in the health secretariats.
The moving average of deaths is also growing. With an increase of 66%, it reached 160 deaths per day.
Ceará informs that the record of deaths higher than in previous days occurred because of data dammed since the beginning of 2022, due to the blackout of data from ConectSUS, after a cyber attack on the systems of the Ministry of Health.
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.
The numbers of recorded applied doses have grown substantially due, in particular, to the return of multi-state update.
Brazil registered 2,691,008 doses of vaccines against Covid-19, this Monday. According to data from the state health departments, there were 165,646 first doses, 598,421 second doses. In addition, 94,708 single doses and 1,832,233 booster doses were recorded.
Only Rio Grande do Sul, for example, recorded 1,192,386 doses, 821,704 only in booster doses.
In all, 162,210,686 people received at least the first dose of a vaccine against Covid in Brazil — 142,205,604 of them have already received the second dose of the immunizer. Added to the single doses of Janssen’s vaccine against Covid, there are already 147,308,222 people with both doses or with one dose of Janssen vaccine.
Thus, the country already has 75.51% of the population with the 1st dose and 68.57% of Brazilians with both doses or with one dose of the Janssen vaccine. Considering only the adult population, the values are, respectively, 100.27% and 91.06%.
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.
