Yet another worker in Brazil preparing for this summer’s World Cup, Fabio Hamilton da Cruz, passed away while working on the construction of the country’s new stadiums. Da Cruz’s death brings the total to seven, bringing international outcry and interest into Brazil’s preparation, with open questioning if they will be ready in time and if they are speeding up production at the risk of dangerous working conditions. The new Corinthians stadium he was working on was supposed to be finished in December, but was delayed because of other workers’ deaths. With even the FIFA General Secretary saying the situation is not ideal brings to question the readiness of Brazil as the world turns its attention onto them.
