In the introduction:

"As of June 2020, Brazil has"

This is now months out of date. Please change it to

"By then, Brazil had"

"then" is a reference to the previous sentence, which is talking about June 2020. 2601:5C6:8081:35C0:ECF5:4FFA:90C5:D6EE (talk) 11:10, 22 August 2020 (UTC)

Also, why is "Presidential responses" a separate section from "Responses"? It's a kind of response; please change it from ==Presidential responses== to ===Presidential responses===. Thank you. 2601:5C6:8081:35C0:ECF5:4FFA:90C5:D6EE (talk) 11:14, 22 August 2020 (UTC)

Demographics of victims

I would like to know more about who it is that is dying, and why. In the west we say that the people who die from coronavirus are mostly elderly or already sick. Is it the same pattern in Brazil, or different? Mporter (talk) 03:01, 7 June 2020 (UTC)

@Mporter:, Brazil is also in the west and seems, due the news, that the poor people (like in favelas) are the mostly affected/killed - according this July ranking from São Bernardo do Campo, as a example, the favela Montanhão (near where I live) had the most cases.
