Epidemiology of COVID-19 in Amazonas, Brazil

Abstract

The study aimed to describe the main epidemiological data of
COVID-19 in the State of Amazonas. In search of the answers to
the proposed objective, bibliographic and documentary research
and analysis was carried out. This is a descriptive research with a
quantitative-qualitative approach. This article is subdivided into five
sections: cases, deaths; incidence rate; mortality rate and mortality
rate of COVID-19 in the State of Amazonas. The results obtained show
that after six months of pandemic Covid-19 the State has 123,905
confirmed cases, 3,849 deaths, an infection rate of 2,944.7, mortality
rate of 91.5, and a lethality rate of 3.11. Based on these results, we
can conclude that the state has already reached its peak of new cases
(11th week) and deaths (8th week) and, consequently, the deceleration
of incidence, mortality, and lethality rates.
