Brazil stra amazonsk mutation coronavirus. Healthcare did not collapse, put the days will be critical Svt

BRASLIA / PRAGUE Brazil is now going through the darkest days of the covid epidemic. At a time when Brazil’s healthcare system is collapsing, President Bolsonaro has called on residents to grow a scout.

After hospitals in the Brazilian city of Manaus had to stop accepting new patients in April last year, and the councils had mass graves dug in the city cemetery, nothing like this seemed to happen again. Element error: in recent days the situation has escalated in a similar way.

This is despite the fact that, according to scientific research, at least two-thirds of the population underwent coronavirus infection during the first wave of the epidemic in the Brazilian Amazon’s two-quarter-million metropolises. So far, it has been thought that the Manaus population has achieved so-called collective immunity and is relatively safe. Only in Brazil now a new mutation of the virus, known as P.1, and it seems to be less portable and much more deadly than the basic strain. Death can also be given to people who spoil it. And according to some theories of the P.1 mutation, come first from the city of Manaus.

In recent days, the war has risen to record wines throughout Brazil. Every day in the country of disease covid-19 died more than 1500 people. Even if the population is one million high, it would remain a little lower than in the busiest countries of Europe, compared to the Czech Republic and the United Kingdom, Brazil is still much better.

Only the Brazilian healthcare system is not nearly as powerful or technically equipped as the systems in the rich European states. And this deficit is te znt. In many hundreds, Brazil has spread a lot of money, oxygen and staff, and a number of patients, according to BBC television, are in the country two, there is no place for them and adequate care.

Millions of Brazilians in this time were outraged by the actions of the far-right president Jair Bolsonar, who on Wednesday declared that you need to be blown and scolded and called on those residents who stay at home for fear of the virus to get back to work.

Without work and income, we are doomed to poverty and expecting unrest and plunder, he repeated, according to Correio Braziliense Bolsonaro, his narrative, which stems from the outbreak of the epidemic:

The bars on Copacaban ordered

Not all brazilt politicians, but the president’s views share and the critical situation of recent days has once again highlighted the dispute between Bolsonar and most of the governors of the Brazilian federal states. They have known powers including healthcare.

And until the arrest of ordinary, in most of the Brazilian states of anti-virus measures were provided only very slightly, or even days. Shops and restaurants remained open, noen face masks were highly recommended. This in the last days of me. Some governors have imposed strict restrictions and the Bolsonars cannot drink in their names.

For example, João Doria, governor of the most populous state of São Paulo, told the president in an interview with the BBC server that he had brought the country to the brink of collapse. According to him, Brazil must fight a double enemy. The first is a virus, the second is Jair Bolsonaro, said the governor.

All stores, except for the sellers’ goods, which are essential for life, have been closed in the state-of-the-century million-strong state of São Paulo since Saturday. The most populous city of Rio de Janeiro also started to slow down, where they at least limited the opening hours of restaurants and bars and declared the destruction of the outburst. It even pointed to one of the Brazilian icons: there will be stalls and shops refreshed on the full surface of the famous Copacabana in Rio de Janeiro. Brazil is waiting for critical days.
