According to the experts nothing has worked. They have masks and associated behavior doesn't and have said it might work. Vaccines are and are not effective. Natural immunity is not effective. Beyond the pursuit of political power they know nothing.

Healthcare Systems in Brazil, Sistema Único de Saúde

www.internationalinsurance.com/health/systems/brazil.phphttps://www.internationalinsurance.com/health/systems/brazil.php

The Brazilian public healthcare system is known as the "United Health System" or SUS (Sistema Único de Saúde.) and healthcare is a constitutional right. Prior to reforms in 1988, only citizens who contributed to the social security system were able to receive public healthcare services. Today, the SUS is free and universal to all.


First, the Brazilion system is socialist.

Second, the Daily Mail infographic shows the OOMG variant is in Australia, Japan, South Korea, 4 or 5 South American countries, US, Canada and the other NATO countries.

There is no information most of Asia, China Russian, Africa, India and the Middle East. They either do not want to report, can't report or are not playing childish games as stupid and silly as Russian roulette with COVID and lockdowns. With air travel and how infectious this virus is suppose to be, it has not spread to Africa or the Stans?

Best advice is get aerobicly fit and and maintain a normal BMI.

Lots of fat Brazilians.
