- This video is about the flooding that has happened in Rio Grande do Sul Brazil. The flooding started nearly 2 weeks ago and has affected a large part of the state. In this video I will explain what the latest situation is and how this state is trying to slowly return to normal.
About me: I am Swedish and I moved to Brazil over 5 years ago and on my channel I share my experiences of living in the South of Brazil.

A situação é realmente complicada, muitas cidades menores estão realmente abandonadas, por falta de ajuda e recursos para que seus moradores possam retornar. Sem contar o cheiro forte de lama e corpos de animais e pessoas que ficaram sem resgate. Um cenário de guerra, muito triste!
Sim muito triste 🙏🏼
Wife and I live in Fort Worth, Texas. Wife is from Joinville, SC. We sent $1,000 to one of her brothers in Joinville to buy water, toiletries and toilet paper and bring to local fire department for shipment to RS. He said almost NO bottled water left in Joinville.
God bless you
🙏🏼
Though, Joinville is on the coast of Santa Catarina, 385 miles to the north of Porto Alegre. It has not rained much in that area. During the last two weeks it has not rained much in this area.
Maybe an idea to make a video about the towns and cities to avoid when looking to purchase a home in RS.
Thanks for keeping us informed. Hope things turn around for everyone soon.
There are always floods in Brazil, but I think this is the worst one ever.
That's right, this was the worst one ever.
@@nordicinvestor a correspondent on CNN Brasil mentioned that there was severe historical flooding in Pelotas in 1941.
We have had many severe floods here in Blumenau SC ..But this is by far the worst.
Hejsan! Kul att höra att du bor i Rio Grande do Sul. Jag är därifrån från en stad som heter Ijuí. Den finns en del svenska ättlingar där, bland annat min pappa och hans släkt. Vilken stad bor du? Hemsk det som änder i Rio grand o Sul nu man har inga ord :/. Har du blivit drabbat av översäming? Ha det fint!
Hej, din svenska är mycket bra. Jag vill besöka Ijui en dag för det låter som en trevlig stad. Som tur var påverkades jag inte av översvämningarna. Blev du påverkad?
@@nordicinvestor Skönt att du inte har blivit drabbat. Men det är en mardröm som aldrig tar slut detta översvämningar, följer alla nyheter. Ushhh. Jag bor i Linköping nu, mina föräldrar bor kvar i Ijuí
Very comprehensive thorough and in English thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Hi, thanks for the update. So sad to see this happening, hope things get better soon. We are planning to visit Rio, Amazon river and São Paulo in July . Is it safe to travel the central and northern regions?
Rio, Sao Paulo and Manaus have a fair bit of crime but you are relatively safe if you stick to the tourist areas. I would recommend taking guided city tours rather than venturing out by yourself.
you never saw this coming when you did the flood video of the most areas i brazil....thanks for the info
👍
thank you for the report - the news is about this disaster is sparse here in the US.
I noticed that the media in the US and Europe have not mentioned it much
I was listening to a podcast episode in Spanish about efforts to seed mosquitos with a bacterium that prevents the spread of Dengue fever in Brazil and other countries as well as vaccination and elimination of standing water where mosquito eggs incubate. The podcast is produced by Radio Ambulante estudios. It is named "El hilo". Unfortunately it does not have English or Spanish transcriptions like the main podcast. During the episode it was mentioned that the Argentine government has not been interested in addressing the increase in cases. I was thinking about which diseases might experience an increase due to the severe flooding. I have an old acquaintance whose family lives in Porto Alegre and I have seen some of his short video messages on a social platform. Hoping to speak with him and learn how I can help soon. I was in this area in December, but I did not visit RS. Only Santa Catarina and Uruguay and CABA
Dengue is spreading more and more in Rio Grande do Sul state.
It was a non issue here all my life. I am 44. Now, even before the floods, we had 126 deaths. Which was more than 2022 that had been the record with 66 deaths.
The cold always arrived at the time the mosquito started spreading its eggs, so it didn´t survive. It's getting cold later and later... so the mosquito has the time to hatch and spread.
The media have mentioned that there is a higher risk of dengue due to the flooding but the temperature has dropped significantly this week (down to 7C at night) which should start to reduce the mosquito population.
There is also talk about an increase in other diseases related to the dirty flood waters like leptospirosis, tetanus and hepatitis A
@@nordicinvestor I saw that CNN Brasil has a series of video about dengue in Brazil. I also heard something similar to how to avoid Leptospriosis. I have been using CNN Brasil to improve my Brazilian Portuguese. I also watch Philipe Brazuca's channel to learn about differences between Spanish and Brazilian Portuguese
OMG how are you doing there? Was your city affected? I pray that the city will recover soon! I am shocked to see the videos online.
I was not directly affected but I know people who lost their homes. The whole community is helping as much as possible everyone who was affected
0:50 that's my town
We have been lucky until now
But we are in the danger zone
My parents and father in law are staying in my house
Because I live in a higher area
I hope you and your family stay safe
Does anyone know what the best way to sent money to the disaster relief, a little worried about the money not getting to the people that need it the most?
I donated to the Brazil foundation but there are many others. You make a good point about whether the money will actually reach the most needy, I can't vouch for that with this charity
Oração 🙏🏼
