The incidence of comorbidity was 60.50% with a higher incidence of heart disease and chronic disease (72.80%).
The existence of late records and/or a backlog of cases is due to the overburdening of investigative teams, as there are mandatory notification illnesses beyond Covid-19. Another reason is the deepening of epidemiological investigations by the municipal and state surveillance in order to avoid distortions or misunderstandings, such as ignoring the cause of death, head injury or cancer in its final stages, even if the person was infected with the Corona virus.

An excessive amount of doses has been observed in vials of vaccines against Covid-19, which makes it possible to use 11 and up to 12 doses in just one vial, as is the case with other multi-dose vaccines. The Ministry of Health has issued a notice allowing the use of the increased volume provided that a full 0.5 ml dose is inhaled from one vial. Thus it can be seen that the vaccination rate in some municipalities is higher than 100%.
