In fact, we know that so far, of the total confirmed cases, 26,573 people are considered recovered, corresponding to 54% of the diagnosed cases and another 19,606 remain under follow-up.
Unfortunately, in the last 24 hours alone, 3,735 new cases and 407 new deaths were recorded. “We had an increase in deaths above what had been happening previously. It is still not possible to say whether this represents an effort to close the diagnoses or whether it represents an upward trend.
Coronavirus deaths Brazil- updates
Regarding the deaths, the new Minister of Health said that “we evaluate what is happening all day, until this afternoon and, based on the new data, we define the new actions”, he emphasized.
It is known that today 1,269 deaths are awaiting laboratory investigation. With the arrival of more diagnostic tests in the states and the improvement in the flow of laboratories, this wait for the result has been reduced. To give you an idea, of the 407 deaths confirmed today by COVID-19, 112 occurred in the last three days and the rest (295) before that period.
Brazil gained reinforcement of beds, says Ministry of Health.
It was announced this Thursday (23), the qualification of 1,134 ICU beds dedicated exclusively to the care of serious or critical patients of the coronavirus. This amount is added to the 322 beds enabled on two other occasions in April. With this, the country now has a reinforcement of 1,456 ICU beds in the fight against the pandemic.
He ended by saying:
“We made the qualifications today for the most different states and this will represent an investment by the Federal Government of R$ 163.6 million over the next 90 days”, highlighted Minister Nelson Teich, during a press conference at the Planalto Palace, in Brasilia. The amount will be passed on to states and municipalities.
Brazil is going through an extremely delicate situation, and will have to pay the price of not believing in social isolation, above all, the danger of the new coronavirus for the country. Disasters are to come!
