How Brazil s Covid-19 vaccine plan fell apart

How Brazil’s Covid-19 vaccine plan fell apart Some of the sickest people in São Paulo, Brazil occupy the rooms inside the Covid-19 ward at the Emilio Ribas Institute of Infectious Disease. Machines beep and whir, nurses and doctors a blur as they rush into the room of an elderly man who is gasping for air that won’t come. The decision to intubate is made quickly. It is his only chance at a survival far from guaranteed. Among the half-dozen or so in the room, nurse Monica Aparecida Calazans says she has already seen too much death. “I’ve already lost eight of my colleagues to Covid,” she said. “It is such a cruel disease.”

In Brazil, vaccine trial volunteers hope to save lives, not win fame

By Amanda Perobelli SAO PAULO (Reuters) - From doctors weary of seeing patients die to relatives who lost their loved ones, thousands of Brazilians have volunteered for COVID vaccine trials in one of the world s worst-affected countries in the hope their quiet heroism will save lives. Latin America s largest country has become a major testing ground for vaccines because of the scale of its outbreak, which has seen more than 7.3 million people infected and over 180,000 killed by the coronavirus. Denise Abranches, 47, coordinator of dentistry at a Sao Paulo hospital, was the first volunteer outside Britain to receive the trial vaccine from AstraZeneca Plc.
