Abstract

Objective: to analyze children's COVID-19 incidence and mortality rates and their relationship with family income. Methods: this ecological study looks at COVID-19 cases and outcomes in children aged up to 11 years, 11 months, and 29 days. Data were collected from the State Data Analysis System and the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics. They analyzed using the Bivariate Global Moran's Index and a join point regression model based on Poisson regression. Results: 88,913 cases of COVID-19 in children and 335 deaths were recorded in the period analyzed. There was a weak negative spatial correlation between the COVID-19 incidence coefficient among children and the rate in families with an income of up to half the minimum wage per capita and families with an income above two minimum wages per capita. Conclusion: the clusters with the highest incidence coefficients were found in favored regions, while the mortality coefficient was higher in disadvantaged and vulnerable areas. Contributions to practice: these results contribute to a more equitable nursing and health practice, focused on the reality of the different social and economic contexts faced by families in other regions.
