even here, brazil's top infectious diseases hospital, coronavirus has floored them. it was the first hospital to fill up in sao paulo and every day they are turning more people away. it's not physical, it's psychological. ‘cause sometimes we fail and we have to deal with the family pain, and theyjust couldn't see those patients, they're not here for them when they're dying. it's the loneliness that they feel, even if they are sedated. i feel safe here, more than outside. really? it's a comment that says a lot. the president has shunned social distancing and regularly refused to wear masks, despite them being mandatory. the death toll keeps climbing and even now that he has the virus, he's supportive of shops and restaurants reopening. there is little love for jair bolsonaro on this ward. i think he was the worst thing that we can have in this moment. he was — he is, in fact — irresponsible. he is a person without empathy and he said, "it's not my problem." so is my problem? in the midst of grief, politics doesn't matter, but everyone is affected. gravediggers t

give us a sense of where we are in this pandemic in brazil specifically. are we never peek, is there improvement? i was talking what are the doctors at the hospital and he was talking about the death toll, more than 7000 people dying every single week here now in brazil and he likened it to four planes crashing every single day and he said he and his colleagues shared the view that is going to be late august september until we start seeing these numbers come down. a stubbornly high 40,000, 50,000 cases every day, more than 1000 people dying on most days at least here in brazil so it doesn't look like we are over this crisis or it is easing in any way at all. that's pretty depressing to hear. what kind of measures are in place? different countries around the world a re different countries around the world are in different stages, they have steps in place differently. that's the problem, mixed messages from the beginning.jair problem, mixed messages from the beginning. jair bolsonaro, who has always shunned social distancing and has been clear that he thinks

let's talk about brazil generally and italian pasternak brazil seems to be in the 1st wave of this pandemic and with all of this advice going on from the present use their struggle i'm going to be fine and all of these mixed messages or direct messages and coronaviruses and a thing is that meaning does that mean that the 2nd wave may well be worse than the than the 1st wife. i don't know if we have the 2nd wave i think we're in the midst of the tsunami relates going to be. the only way. we haven't really gotten past the fast wave and i don't know if we go in to get cases down and best down enough so that we can talk about a 2nd wave i think it's all connected like a big tsunami really and of course this is a result of bad public policies and electoral guidelines from the federal government in calls when the president himself a state that it's just a mine of flu and that's nothing to worry about and why should we isolate and go in to socialize allayed and and here is the miracle drug so he gave his all wrong ideas and sadly 30 percent of the population still follows haman believes them so ma

just give us your assessment of what's happening in brazil. well, we have most parts of brazil still greatly affected by the epidemic. especially in the south of brazil, it has been less as —— accelerated so far, and these numbers, these official numbers are certainly far worse because several methods show that they underestimate by at least four oi’ underestimate by at least four or five underestimate by at least four orfive times underestimate by at least four or five times the real number of infected and diseased. if you look at the so—called serious acute respiratory illness, those numbers are much higher. there is no other respiratory infection. so not just on the side of personal suffering, it's also the lack of other information on the global and also local level that inhibits other protections. i see, so what do you make more widely of the handling of this? it's a terrible mess, because you see, we have social distancing measures like lockdown, for instance, left to the mouse to decide. and the governments of the states, we are
