Abstract
This study investigates the relationship between climate variability and the occurrence of waterborne diseases in Northern Brazil, analyzing hospitalization and death rates from 2010 to 2022. The research leverages secondary health and climate data, employing robust statistical techniques for ecological health studies. Results indicate a complex interplay between climate variables, sanitation conditions, and health outcomes. Significant correlations were found between treated sewage and reduced disease incidence, highlighting the critical role of improved sanitation in public health strategies amidst increasing climate variability. The findings underscore the need for enhanced public policies focusing on disease prevention and control, contributing to the broader understanding of climate impacts on public health in tropical regions.
