The spread of the mutant virus COVID-19 in Brazil has brought the public health system of each region into a crisis situation just before the collapse. The cumulative death toll exceeds 250,000, second only to the United States. Reporter Kim Jin-ho. Workers are digging graves for those who died from Corona 19. In recent years, the death toll per day has exceeded a thousand and several graves are being built at the same time due to the rapid increase in the death toll. There is no place in the hospital to store the body, so it must be stored in a large freezer outside the hospital. The cumulative death toll exceeded 250,000, the next in the United States, and the number of confirmed cases exceeded 10 million. In addition, the spread of the mutant virus, which has a three times faster infection rate, threatens the hospital’s responsiveness. The governors warned that in at least 12 of the country’s 27 states, responding to COVID-19 is practically difficult and that all of Brazil could become confused in the next two weeks. Experts call for immediate action.
