Humanity seems to be living a real nightmare with the new coronavirus, doesn't it? We have no other subject to talk about but this one, because it is a matter of preserving life.
Of course, our portal Digital Insurance brings you other relevant information, such as financial education, loans, credit cards, and much more, however, we always need to bring you news of what is happening.
And that's why we're going to talk about the situation in Brazil, today (April 30th) with regard to the updated numbers of deaths from the coronavirus. Check out the country's overall picture below.
Unfortunately, Brazil already appears among the countries in the world where the pace of expansion of the pandemic is most worrying and which, consequently, is more likely to escalate deaths.
Number of deaths in Brazil is alarming
The big concern now is that in Brazil, cases are doubling in less time than Italy, Spain and the United Kingdom. It is known that among the Brazilian states, Maranhão is the one that registers the same speed of deaths as the United States. In other states such as Amazonas, Rondônia, Pará, Paraíba, Pernambuco and Alagoas, the registration of new cases is equivalent to that of Italy.
Fiocruz specialists clarified that these deaths are a consequence of some measures that were taken several weeks ago, of relaxation and some of behavioral relapse of people who failed to take some precautions.
They also found the virus to be present in all Brazilian states and rapid spread to smaller municipalities. The greater the number of cases of Covid-19 in small towns, the greater the risk of lack of care where the health structure is poor or non-existent, and the greater the migration of patients to larger cities, where there is already a lack of beds in health units.
Situation in Brazil is worrying!
The Fiocruz institute also explained that the new coronavirus is already present in almost 80% of municipalities between 50 and 100 thousand inhabitants. In smaller municipalities, community circulation is already visible and worrisome.
“Some specific measures need to be taken in these smaller cities: screening, rapid care, testing.”
Anyway, we must follow WHO guidelines, and do our part.
