Brazil is the world's second-worst-hit country after the United States. Despite the large numbers, Brazil's president, Jar Bolsonaro, refused to acknowledge the severity of the outbreak, insisting that quarantine and social isolation were not necessary to combat the virus. The Brazilian government even removed comprehensive figures on cases and deaths of coronavirus from the Health Ministry's website in early June, saying it had no evidence that state officials had been reporting false figures to obtain more federal funds. Meanwhile, while Brazilian researchers say there are indications that the earliest confirmed cases in Latin America were detected in Brazil on February 26, there are indications that there were cases in Brazil as early as January. It has to be said that Brazil and the United States are really a good couple.
Data released by Brazil's Ministry of Health on the 17th showed that in the past 24 hours, Brazil has added 34,177 confirmed cases of new coronal pneumonia, a cumulative total of more than 2.04 million confirmed, a cumulative death of more than 70,000. The cumulative number of confirmed cases and deaths in Brazil is second only to that of the United States. The outbreak rebounded at the end of May, when Most Brazilian states allowed limited-hours operations in shops and shopping centers to save the economy, and then gradually opened restaurants and schools. Analysts believe that Brazil's current resumption of business will only put more pressure on the epidemic. Brazil's two health ministers because of serious differences with President Bosonaro on the issue of the fight against the epidemic, health minister position vacant more than two months, Bosonaro and local governments on the issue of anti-epidemic also has a lot of differences, the federal government and state and municipal governments lack of co-ordination, making Brazil's anti-epidemic work more difficult.
Second, Brazil's population base is very large, with more than 200 million people, especially in major cities such as Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, with very high population density. And Brazil is now entering the winter, but also cold, flu season. The situation is not optimistic!
Bosonaro is still positive.
There is no sign of a turnaround in the outbreak in Brazil, so Brazilians are increasingly dissatisfied with Bosonaro's epidemic prevention performance.
At this time, has always claimed that the new crown pneumonia is just a "small flu" Bosonaro also diagnosed with the new crown pneumonia.
He said in a Facebook live broadcast on the 15th that he was tested again on the 14th, the results are still positive. But he said he was in good health and had no symptoms such as fever or muscle aches.
It is not only Bossonaro who is in the Brazilian government who is "in the middle of the way". The governor of the eastern Brazilian state of Sergepe, Belivaldo Chagas, announced on the afternoon of the 15th local time that he had tested positive for the new coronavirus earlier in the day.
Chagos said on his social media that day that he had mild symptoms and had begun to be isolated at home while dealing with government affairs. He reiterated his call for residents in the state to stay as isolated as possible and wear masks when they go out.
Chagos is the ninth governor in 26 states and one federal district to have been diagnosed with new coronary pneumonia since the outbreak in Brazil.
Again, Brazil and the United States are completely different and do not need to use the lives of the people to emulate the world's first !!!
It's not fair for all to have a tragedy!
I hope the virus will leave early.
