Via O Globo: Brazil records new records of moving average of cases and deaths by Covid-19. Excerpt from the Google translation, with my bolding:
RIO - Brazil registered two new records this Monday: the moving average of cases and deaths by Covid-19.
The calculation that averages positive cases reported daily, counting those released today and in the last six days, stood at 75,163, a 10% increase compared to two weeks ago. The death rate stood at 2,298, an increase of 46% over two weeks ago. The record is for the 24th consecutive day and the moving average has been above 2,000 since March 17.
The country surpassed the number of 295 thousand dead and 12 million infected by Covid-19. In the last 24 hours, 1,570 deaths were recorded, totaling 295,685 lives lost. Since 8 pm on Sunday, 55,177 cases have been reported, bringing the total number of people who have become infected with the coronavirus to 12,051,619.
The Johns Hopkins dashboard has slightly lower case numbers, but makes the same point: Brazil has suffered a disaster, turned by policy into a catastrophe.
