Pandemia de COVID-19 em cidade local na Amazônia: cenários sociopolítico e sociocultural em São Caetano de Odivelas, Pará

Abstract

Abstract This study aims to record clinical and epidemiological data on COVID-19 in the local town of São Caetano de Odivelas (PA), in order to propose guidelines for the control of the pandemic and to reverse the socio-economic impacts. A form elaborated in the Google Docs application was used, by 200 respondents, followed by analysis and interpretation based on discourse and socio-cultural characteristics, revealing the ideology of political groups that hinder public policies, as well as the absence of socio-anthropological aspects in the consideration of sanitary measures. To conclude, three lines of action are proposed: awareness and clarification for the public concerning the pandemic, configuration of contagion networks based on families, and the guarantee of income and provisions for workers.
