92% of the rooms were already occupied this Wednesday, reported HoteisRio, an entity that represents this sector of the tourism industry in the “Wonderful City.”
“We continue with restrictive measures, demanding the vaccination certificate, that gives security to tourists, those who come to Rio come to have fun safely,” said Alfredo Lopes, president of HoteisRio.
The bulk of the arriving tourists come from Brazil, mainly from the neighboring states of São Paulo and Minas Gerais.
Due to the coronavirus pandemic, and the arrival of the Omicron strain, Mayor Eduardo Paes decreed a series of “restrictive” measures to avoid crowds on the beaches during the “Reveillon” on December 31.
This year there will be no presentation of musical groups in the sands of Copacabana, but 15 tons of fireworks will be launched from rafts anchored hundreds of meters from the coast.
It is expected that the “humidity corridor” will arrive in Rio, where on December 31 there may be “heavy rains,” meteorologist Nicole Montero, from the Climatempo company, reported today.
Paes acknowledged that there may be floods in Rio if the rains had the same intensity as those that occurred in these days in the state of Bahia.
On the other hand, Brazil has practically 67% of the population with the 2 doses of the coronavirus vaccines, according to the data released by 14 of the 27 states of the Union.
Until 20 o’clock this Tuesday, 142.88 million Brazilians received the 2 injections of AstraZeneca, Pfizer, Coronavac and the single dose of the Janssen vaccine, which represents 66.98% of the population.
Meanwhile, the number of people to whom at least one dose was applied is 161.08 million, equivalent to 75.52% of the total, the newspaper O Globo published this Wednesday.
