On Monday, June 21, 2021, the Respira Brasil movement held acts in several cities in the country in honor of the 500,000 lives lost to Covid-19. In each act, 500 candles were lit, each representing a thousand dead. The use of candles in place of the crosses seen in previous acts was intended to emphasize the interreligious character of the act, using a symbol accepted by various religions and even by non-religious people. The act was held in Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, Natal, Maceió, Campinas, Diadema, Vitoria, among other cities. The campaign uses #LutoPorMeioMilhão.
