The country accounted for a moving average of 652 deaths from Covid-19. As of September 23, the figure is below 700. The “7-day moving average” averages the number of deaths for the day and the previous six. It is compared to an average of two weeks ago to indicate whether there is an uptrend, stability or a downtrend. The calculation is a statistical resource to be able to see the trend of the data, drowning out the “noise” caused on weekends, when the notification of deaths is reduced by the shortage of employees on duty.

Brazil has five states with an upward trend in deaths from Covid-19: Acre, Amazonas, Amapá, Ceará and Roraima.

The Federal District and 16 states show a trend of stability: Alagoas, Espírito Santo, Goiás, Mato Grosso, Mato Grosso do Sul, Maranhão, Minas Gerais, Paraná, Pernambuco, Piauí, Rio de Janeiro, Rio Grande do Norte, Rio Grande do Sul, São Paulo, Santa Catarina and Sergipe.
