"On the day that Brazil reached more than half of its population fully vaccinated against COVID-19, the consortium of media outlets completed 500 uninterrupted days of work. The group is formed by G1, O Globo, Extra, O Estado de S.Paulo, Folha de S.Paulo and UOL.
The consortium was created on June 8, 2020 in response to Jair Bolsonaro government's decision to restrict access to data on the COVID-19 pandemic.
The outlets decided to form a partnership and work collaboratively to seek the necessary information on cases and deaths from the disease in 26 states and the Federal District."
