abstract: 'Background COVID-19 spread rapidly in Brazil despite the country''s well
|
||||
|
||||
established health and social protection systems. Understanding the
|
||||
|
||||
relationships between health-system preparedness, responses to COVID-19,
|
||||
|
||||
and the pattern of spread of the epidemic is particularly important in a
|
||||
|
||||
country marked by wide inequalities in socioeconomic characteristics
|
||||
|
||||
(eg, housing and employment status) and other health risks (age
|
||||
|
||||
structure and burden of chronic disease).
|
||||
|
||||
Methods From several publicly available sources in Brazil, we obtained
|
||||
|
||||
data on health risk factors for severe COVID-19 (proportion of the
|
||||
|
||||
population with chronic disease and proportion aged >= 60 years),
|
||||
|
||||
socioeconomic vulnerability (proportions of the population with housing
|
||||
|
||||
vulnerability or without formal work), health-system capacity (numbers
|
||||
|
||||
of intensive care unit beds and physicians), coverage of health and
|
||||
|
||||
social assistance, deaths from COVID-19, and state-level responses of
|
||||
|
||||
government in terms of physical distancing policies. We also obtained
|
||||
|
||||
data on the proportion of the population staying at home, based on
|
||||
|
||||
locational data, as a measure of physical distancing adherence. We
|
||||
|
||||
developed a socioeconomic vulnerability index (SVI) based on household
|
||||
|
||||
characteristics and the Human Development Index. Data were analysed at
|
||||
|
||||
the state and municipal levels. Descriptive statistics and correlations
|
||||
|
||||
between state-level indicators were used to characterise the
|
||||
|
||||
relationship between the availability of health-care resources and
|
||||
|
||||
socioeconomic characteristics and the spread of the epidemic and the
|
||||
|
||||
response of governments and populations in terms of new investments,
|
||||
|
||||
legislation, and physical distancing. We used linear regressions on a
|
||||
|
||||
municipality-by-month dataset from February to October, 2020, to
|
||||
|
||||
characterise the dynamics of COVID-19 deaths and response to the
|
||||
|
||||
epidemic across municipalities.
|
||||
|
||||
Findings The initial spread of COVID-19 was mostly affected by patterns
|
||||
|
||||
of socioeconomic vulnerability as measured by the SVI rather than
|
||||
|
||||
population age structure and prevalence of health risk factors. The
|
||||
|
||||
states with a high (greater than median) SVI were able to expand
|
||||
|
||||
hospital capacity, to enact stringent COVID-19-related legislation, and
|
||||
|
||||
to increase physical distancing adherence in the population, although
|
||||
|
||||
not sufficiently to prevent higher COVID-19 mortality during the initial
|
||||
|
||||
phase of the epidemic compared with states with a low SVI. Death rates
|
||||
|
||||
accelerated until June, 2020, particularly in municipalities with the
|
||||
|
||||
highest socioeconomic vulnerability. Throughout the following months,
|
||||
|
||||
however, differences in policy response converged in municipalities with
|
||||
|
||||
lower and higher SVIs, while physical distancing remained relatively
|
||||
|
||||
higher and death rates became relatively lower in the municipalities
|
||||
|
||||
with the highest SVIs compared with those with lower SVIs.
|
||||
|
||||
Interpretation In Brazil, existing socioeconomic inequalities, rather
|
||||
|
||||
than age, health status, and other risk factors for COVID-19, have
|
||||
|
||||
affected the course of the epidemic, with a disproportionate adverse
|
||||
|
||||
burden on states and municipalities with high socioeconomic
|
||||
|
||||
vulnerability. Local government responses and population behaviour in
|
||||
|
||||
the states and municipalities with higher socioeconomic vulnerability
|
||||
|
||||
have helped to contain the effects of the epidemic. Targeted policies
|
||||
|
||||
and actions are needed to protect those with the greatest socioeconomic
|
||||
|
||||
vulnerability. This experience could be relevant in other low-income and
|
||||
|
||||
middle-income countries where socioeconomic vulnerability varies
