"content": "The COVID-19 situation is worse than in the first or second waves. It is not only about the number of deaths that are being reported here, but also Members have noticed that deaths have increased in the rural areas, particularly among the old people. You hear every time that they had a chest infection. We told the Government that it is important to monitor the deaths, so that even if we cannot test, we will know that people may be dying without being tested and, therefore, they are part of the COVID-19 deaths. That is an important thing that we, as a country, must do. We do not have a worse situation because we have a different variant of virus. When the President relaxed the guidelines, we did not go by the guidelines that he gave. He removed the movement restrictions. There were still very clear guidelines on social distancing in hotels, churches, funerals and political meetings. However, we did not follow them. We went back to normalcy. That is why this wave is as bad as it is."
