The current situation of Brazil is that virus is spreading from one major city to others and the recent surge in new cases due to a new variant of virus known as P1 in the Amazon rainforest city of Manaus.
This new Variant is now surging out in 17 out of 27 Brazil’s State. The new Variant was also detected in more than two dozen countries throughout the entire world.
Studies warn us that it is more contagious than the original strain of coronavirus and might re-infect those who had already COVID-19.
So far as Brazil is using Chinese manufactured Coronavac and Oxford University’s AstraZeneca. Unfortunately, the people who had recovered from the virus might still be at risk and possibly the Brazilian Government will be imposing more restrictions very soon.
