Isn't Brazil in America?
America is a commonly-used short form for the United States of America, as it is in this case. (Edit to add: Actually, it's even more specific than that: American is the commonly accepted demonym for citizens of the United States, which is how it's used here.) To refer to the landmasses including North and South America, the term the Americas is typically used.
This desire is futile and I hope it's not really anchored in the atheist mindset.
Paywalled but...wonder if they could apply for US citizenship since technically their father is a USian? Kind of reminds me of another article I saw a while back about Chinese women coming to the US to give birth so their children would have the option of becoming a US citizen if they wanted to later in life.

It's paywalled but I wonder if one of the reasons is the Zika virus[1]? Like if a Brazilian male partner is infected, would they try to find a non-brazilian(to be safe since it's asymptomatic) sperm donor?

2) Is there any evidence that males will be infected forever and won't be able to have children?
3) Poor people don't import US sperm, rich people do. Rich people also are not the demographic impacted by Zika.
