No carnival took place this year due to the pandemic

Brazil is currently experiencing one of the worst periods i have known all due to the covid-19 pandemic.


They have recently started to vaccinate the older population, with many already having had their first vaccination.


As for the younger generation i feel they will be waiting for a quite a while yet to receive theirs however.

Due to the current pandemic this years carnival celebrations for 2021 were cancelled. This is this is the first time that i can remember that this has happened.


Vaccinations took place in the Samba Drome in Rio De Janeiro recently as can be seen in the picture above.


So why is the pandemic so bad in Brazil:

Very good question indeed, and there could be a number of reasons, just like whats happened within USA the reasoning is the same.


Not all people have abided by the social distancing warnings that have been given, there were still parties in various parts of Brazil during carnival time, but not as high profile as normal of course.


It could also be possible that the vaccination program was not started quick enough, all these points are open to discussion for sure.


Another point could be that the close proximity of people in the poorer parts of Brazil has escalated the contamination and passed to others who in turn then pass to others and it goes on.


People will always have an opinion and they are correct to do so as we are all different in nature.


But above all please abide by the local rules and maintain social distancing, and use an alcohol gel when you can. Thankyou.
