Summary
Las debilidades sociales y económicas hacen que partes de la ciudad sean vulnerables a la propagación de enfermedades, como COVID-19. A seleção de apenas dois dos principais documentos da área da saúde e do planejamento urbano foi intencional, visto que, para uma pesquisa mais aprofundada, seria necessário estudar todos os documentos legais de cada política.
