Brazil is struggling to control the increasing number of COVID-19 cases and deaths. Brazil is the largest country in South America. According to reports, the country is undergoing a devastating second wave of the Coronavirus pandemic. As an emergency measure, the country’s health regulatory agency has also granted emergency approval to two COVID-19 vaccines.

With over 200,000 deaths, Brazil is struggling with the second wave of the coronavirus. According to the Hindu, a daily newspaper in India, Brazilian health officials revealed that oxygen supplies ran out at some hospitals and intensive care wards. There were also cases where patients had to be airlifted and shifted to other states.

According to Aljazeera, the country’s northern state of Amazonas is also struggling to respond to a surge in cases and hospitalizations as healthcare workers are being pushed to their limits and lacking equipment such as oxygen.

BBC world news reported today that doctors in the rainforest’s biggest city Manaus are struggling to control the increasing number of deaths from COVID-19.

The Brazilian Health Regulatory Agency (Anvisa) on Sunday approved the emergency use of COVID-19 vaccines from China’s Sinovac Biotech Limited and Britain’s AstraZeneca, clearing the way for immunizations as the pandemic enters a deadly second wave.

According to Johns Hopkins University, Brazil is witnessing the world’s second-deadliest Coronavirus outbreak with over 200,000 deaths and over 8.5 million infected.
