Today's report from the Ministry of Health, which updates the country's coronavirus numbers, shows that the Federal District has 555 confirmed cases, with 14 deaths.

The second decree allows the collection of resources for the immediate acquisition and contracting of services, equipment, supplies, food and other goods necessary to combat the novel coronavirus pandemic. In the publication, these collections cannot require any burden or charges to the Federal District. Thus, the BRB Institute, linked to the Banco de Brasília, will execute the program.
