Abstract

Objective: To describe the mortality profile and analyze the spatiotemporal distribution of COVID-19 mortality among international migrants residing in Brazil from 2020 to 2022.

Methods: This is a descriptive and ecological cross-sectional study using secondary data. Absolute and relative frequencies of the sociodemographic profile and mortality coefficients (MCs) were analyzed. Excess risk and global and local spatial autocorrelation were calculated.

Results: A total of 7,737 deaths were recorded during the period, with the highest frequency in 2021 (3,952). Brazil's overall MC was 515/100,000, with higher MCs in the Southeast (751/100,000) and Midwest (525/100,000) macroregions. The predominant death profile was for males (5,041); those aged ≥ 81 years (3,612); those of White race/skin color (5,685); married (3,406); born in Portugal (2,437). Global spatial autocorrelation was identified in 2022, and local spatial autocorrelation throughout the period.

Conclusion: The high MC indicates a need for health policy interventions in regions with high migrant population concentrations.

巴西国际移民COVID-19死亡率：2020-2022年时空分析

目的：描述2020 - 2022年在巴西居住的国际移民COVID-19死亡率概况并分析其时空分布。方法：这是一项使用二手数据的描述性和生态学横断面研究。分析了社会人口特征和死亡率系数（MCs）的绝对和相对频率。计算了超额风险、全局和局部空间自相关。结果：在此期间共记录了7,737例死亡，其中2021年最高（3,952例）。巴西的总体MC为515/10万，东南部（751/10万）和中西部（525/10万）宏观区域的MC更高。主要死亡类型为男性（5,041）；年龄≥81岁（3,612）；白人种族/肤色（5,685）；结婚(3406);出生于葡萄牙（2437）。在2022年确定了全球空间自相关，在整个时期确定了局部空间自相关。结论：高MC表明流动人口高集中地区需要卫生政策干预。
