New Model Predicts Nearly 90,000 COVID-19 Deaths in Brazil

In its first forecasts for COVID-19 deaths outside North America and Europe, the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) at the University of Washington is projecting nearly 90,000 deaths in Brazil through early August.

"IHME's new forecasts for a growing number of countries around the world demonstrate the wide range of responses policymakers and health officials have had to the pandemic," said IHME Director Dr. Christopher Murray. "We aim to inform their decisions on how best to manage and mobilize for COVID-19."

IHME's current forecasting lasts through August 4 and, as Murray noted, the Institute's projections will change as new data are acquired and analyzed. Fluctuations are to be expected.

Brazil: 88,305 deaths projected through August 4, with a range of 30,302 to 193,786

Mexico: 6,859 deaths projected through August 4, with a range of 3,578 to 16,795
