More than 410,000 of the nearly 620,000 deaths from the pandemic in Brazil occurred in 2021. Vaccination began late on January 17 despite the resistance of Bolsonaro, who decided not to be vaccinated and to charge the health measures throughout the year. favor of ineffective remedies such as hydroxychloroquine, while the state health system collapsed despite quarantines dictated by governors.
In this context, with more than a hundred requests for impeachment of Bolsonaro, inflation accelerated notably in the neighboring country.
In last November, prices increased 0.95%, below expectations. Even so, it was the highest indicator for any November since 2015. Transportation costs were an important aspect of the increase, increasing by 3.35% in the period, mainly driven by the 7.38% increase in the prices of gasoline, said statistics agency IBGE.
The annual inflation rate reached 10.74%, increased from 10.67% in October and was the highest of the month since November since 2003.
Meanwhile, the unemployment rate in Brazil in the August-October quarter was 12.1%, for which it fell 1.6 percentage points compared to the previous moving quarter, May-July (13.7%), and 2 , 5 compared to the August-October 2020 quarter (14.6%).
Yet unemployment continues to affect 12.9 million people in this country of 213 million people, and inflation continues to erode family incomes.
The performance of workers’ wages “has been less and less, either because the expansion of work occurs in lower-income occupations, or because of the advance of inflation in recent months,” they explained from the IBGE.
