Abstract:

Introduction: COVID-19 has had a strong impact on society with high rates of morbidity and mortality. The use of an epidemiological indicator that estimates the burden of a disease by aggregating early mortality and non-fatal cases in a single measure has the potential to assist in the planning of more appropriate actions at different levels of health care. Objective: To estimate the burden of disease due to COVID-19 in Florianópolis/SCApril 2020 to March 2021. Methods: An ecological study was carried out with datanotification and deaths by COVID-19 in the period of 12 months. The burden indicator called Disability-Adjusted Lost Life Years (DALY) was used, obtained by adding the Lost Life Years (YLL) to the Disability-Adjusted Years Lived (YLD). Results: 78,907 confirmed COVID-19 cases were included. Of these, 763 died during the study period. In total, 4,496.9 DALYs were estimated, a rate of 883.8 DALYs/100,000 inhabitants. In males, there were 2,693.1 DALYs, a rate of 1,098.0 DALYs/100,000 males. In women, there were 1,803.8 DALYs, a rate of 684.4 DALYs/100,000 women. The age group most affected in both sexes was 60 to 69 years. Conclusion: The burden of COVID-19 was high in the city studied. The highest rates were found in females and in the 60-69 age group.
