Talk:COVID-19 pandemic in Brazil/Archives/2020/June

Semi-protected edit request on 16 April 2020
In the following phrase:

"April 14, more than 14 thousand recoveries are reported by the Ministry of Health, with 25,262 confirmed cases and 1,532 confirmed deaths since the beginning of the pandemic. This totals fewer than 10 thousand active cases of COVID-19 in Brazil. [47]"

The reference [47] does not support the statement that 14 thousand recoveries were reported. The reference [47] does indeed indicates there are 25,262 confirmed cases. However the phrase above indicates the total active cases are "fewer than 10 thousand". This cannot be determined based on this reference alone. I recommend to add a reference indicating that those 14 thousand recoveries indeed had happened. Or remove this information if cannot be backed up by a proper reference. 2A02:A03F:8CFC:B400:A922:4441:8133:A737 (talk) 17:42, 16 April 2020 (UTC)
 * In the reference, you can read "14 mil pacientes são considerados recuperados", which translates to "14 thousand patients are considered recovered". If you take the number of confirmed cases, 25262, minus the recoveries and deaths, 14000 and 1532, you will reach 9730, less than 10 thousand. That information was reflected earlier on the infobox by another editor, and is one of the fewer instances of the Ministry of Health providing the number of recoveries in Brazil. --Hagnat (talk) 18:16, 16 April 2020 (UTC)
 * The number of recoveries appears to be fake considering all other nations have patients recovering at less than half the rate required for these Brazilian numbers to be true. I think it should be removed as unreliable. Of 19 (talk) 03:04, 18 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Also the two main Portuguese wiki articles on Covid-19 in Brazil have no mention of any recoveries. Of 19 (talk) 03:13, 18 April 2020 (UTC)
 * these numbers come from official sources from the Ministry of Health. Fake or not, these are number we report. If they are contested, we will add another entry on the timeline stating that fact and correct the tables and graphs --Hagnat (talk) 14:43, 19 April 2020 (UTC)
 * I've added a source from the Brazilian government stating that they are recording active cases as recovered. Of 19 (talk) 03:36, 22 April 2020 (UTC)
 * If you read this article to the end, it says that they are using the same guidelines used by other countries to determine that a patient has recovered. I fail to understand why you continue to contest these values without any hard evidence against them. I will remove the dubious mark tomorrow (April 23) unless you have anything else to add to this discussion --Hagnat (talk) 09:04, 22 April 2020 (UTC)

Official statistics
In face of the latest developments in Brazil's federal government's response to the COVID-19 crisis, I believe it has been proved that the Ministry of Health figures cannot be held as trustworthy.

I would suggest that the daily updates on this page (and on the main page about the pandemic worldwide) be based on independent sources such as https://brasil.io/covid19/ — Preceding unsigned comment added by 201.93.81.73 (talk) 02:44, 9 June 2020 (UTC)

Hello, I noticed that when this page appears on the browsers it shows that the first out break was in Lombardy Italy. That is not true. I also noticed that once you go on the article it is actually written that the first out break was indeed in Wuhan China. Please address this issue. Thank you. Best regards

It could be an issue with your browser; it could also be an issue with transclusion of excerpts into other pages. Anybody who has an idea where the problem might be care to have a look?
