Brazil recorded 47 deaths from Covid-19 and 6,330 cases of the disease this Sunday (15). With this update, the country reaches 664,967 lives lost and 30,683,838 people infected with Sars-CoV-2 since the beginning of the pandemic.
The moving average of cases shows growth in relation to the data of two weeks ago. It now stands at 17,720 per day, up 20% from previous data.
​The average number of deaths remains stable (no variations greater than 15%) and is 111 per day. Compared to two weeks ago, this average is down 12%.
​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 new coronavirus pandemic.
The information is collected by the consortium of press vehicles daily with the state Health Departments.
The consortium of press vehicles stopped updating the numbers of vaccinated against Covid-19 on weekends and holidays. On business days, the data will be updated normally. The measure aims to avoid inaccuracies in the numbers provided to the reader.
The change occurs due to problems in the consolidation of vaccination data by state secretariats. Several states do not update the total number of vaccinated on weekends and holidays, and even those that do sometimes report outdated numbers, which do not correspond to reality and are usually corrected in the following days.
