At least five Brazilian states report rise in severe Covid-19 cases

At least five states in Brazil reported more severe respiratory cases.

The national number of cases of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome, known as SRAG, rose during September and October.

The increase included severe cases caused by Covid-19.

SRAG refers to severe respiratory illness, so these figures do not describe all Covid-19 infections.

The change was recorded over two months, but the information available does not name the states.

The rise concerns severe illness, including Covid-19 cases.

No further developments or next steps are specified.
