1/ #coronavirusbrasil 🇧🇷is killing far more young people around here.

The reason for that:
Lack of access to proper hospital life support. That is a major problem especially for the poor who rely on a burdened public healthcare system (burdened b4 covid)

2/ let´s remember that the age range that most get infected by #covid19 is between 20 - 59yo. Some do need hospital admission but in general do well. What if you don´t have access to proper healthcare when you need? weekly.chinacdc.cn/en/article/id/…
3/ In order for people 2 have access 2 healthcare when needed (which reduces the n. of avoidable deaths), new cases need to be bellow a certain threshold - to protect the healthcare system from collapse. We need to #FlattenTheCurve #covid19

Brazil´s curve is anything but flat.
4/ The most heart-breaking thing to deal with during the #coronavirusbrasil season is to learn that young colleagues are dying, probably due to insufficient PPEs and/or insufficient training on donning/doffing 💔
