  Hospital ICUs are reaching their limits across Brazil, as health experts and state officials beg the government to impose stricter lockdown measures to reduce coronavirus transmission. Eighteen of Brazil s 26 states and one federal district have ICU s at over 80% capacity, federal and state data show. Nine of those are at the edge of collapse at over 90% capacity. Health Minister Eduardo Pazuello has acknowledged the crisis, telling state governors on Feb. 25 that new coronavirus variants had made controlling the pandemic even more difficult, in a country where death and infection rates have long raged out of control. The mutated virus has three times more contamination capacity, and the speed can surprise governors in terms of structure and support. This is the reality we have today in Brazil, he said.
