  • Brazil on Saturday crossed the grim threshold of 500,000 coronavirus deaths, trailing only the United States in lives lost to Covid-19. "500,000 lives lost due to the pandemic that affects our Brazil and the world," Health Minister Marcelo Queiroga tweeted. The latest update from his ministry said the toll is now 500,800, with 2,301 deaths in the past 24 hours. Experts say government Covid figures underestimate the real toll from the health crisis. This week the average daily death toll in Brazil surpassed 2,000 for the first time May 10. Brazil, with a population of 212 million, became the second country after the United States to surpass 500,000 Covid-19 deaths. The South American giant experienced a second wave of the pandemic this year, when at one point it topped 4,000 deaths per day. More than 60 percent of Brazil's fatalities have come since the start of 2021. Brazil now appears to be grappling with a third wave in its outbreak, with infections and deaths spiking. According to the latest weekly report from the Fiocruz medical research foundation, the country is in a "critical" situation with a high number of deaths and the possibility of things worsening in coming weeks as winter arrives in the southern hemisphere. Experts are concerned about the slow rollout of the country's vaccination campaign, the spread of more aggressive virus variants and President Jair Bolsonaro's hostility toward preventative measures like mask wearing and lockdown measures. Queiroga tweeted that he was working "tirelessly to vaccinate all Brazilians in the shortest possible time and change this scenario that has plagued us for more than a year." js/gm/dw/acb
