“…Crajubar's high potential for economic development enshrines it as a large secondary urban center in the interior of Ceará, where most of the population is concentrated. However, advancing the growth of municipalities in this urban agglomeration has led to the growth of slums and the development of social problems, resulting in a poor quality of life in the community and rural exodus, as well as its consequences in public health, such as an increase in zoonoses and infectious diseases [10,11].…”

Background: COVID-19 is a significant public health problem that can have a negative impact, especially in vulnerable regions. Objective: This study aimed to provide evidence that could positively influence coping with COVID-19 based on the relationship between the potential epidemic vulnerability index (PEVI) and socioepidemiological variables. This could be used as a decision-making tool for the planning of preventive initiatives in regions with relevant vulnerability indices for the spread of SARS-CoV-2. Methodology: We performed a cross-sectional study, with the analysis of the population characteristics of COVID-19 cases associated with neighborhoods’ PEVIs in the conurbation region of Crajubar, northeastern Brazil, through the mapping of socioeconomic–demographic factors and spatial autocorrelation. Results: The PEVI distribution indicated low vulnerability in areas with high real estate and commercial value; as communities moved away from these areas, the vulnerability levels increased. As for the number of cases, three of the five neighborhoods with a high–high autocorrelation, and some other neighborhoods showed a bivariate spatial correlation with a low–low PEVI but also high–low with indicators that make up the PEVI, representing areas that could be protected by public health measures to prevent increases in COVID-19 cases. Conclusions: The impact of the PEVI revealed areas that could be targeted by public policies to decrease the occurrence of COVID-19.

Os eventos extremos de precipitações, como secas ou chuvas intensas, acarretam diversos danos à sociedade e uma forma de se monitorar a ocorrência destes eventos é através do Índice de Anomalia de Chuvas (IAC). A região CRAJUBAR cearense, composta pelos municípios Crato, Juazeiro do Norte e Barbalha, bem como os demais municípios do nordeste brasileiro, é marcada por anos de secas severas ou grandes chuvas concentradas em um curto período, com influência, dentre outros fenômenos, da ocorrência do El Niño Oscilação Sul em suas fases quente (El Niño) e fria (La Niña). Dessa forma, o presente trabalho teve como objetivo principal caracterizar e analisar o regime pluviométrico da região do Cariri, através da aplicação do IAC para os anos que compõem a série histórica de 1974 a 2021, verificando sua relação com o ENOS. Os registros pluviométricos foram disponibilizados pela Fundação Cearense de Meteorologia e Recursos Hídricos (FUNCEME) e a partir destes, sem necessidade de preenchimento de falhas, foi calculado o IAC para cada ano estudado em cada município, sendo ilustrado os resultados juntamente com a ocorrência do ENOS em um gráfico. Das ocorrências extremas, tanto positivas como negativas de precipitação, menos da metade foram concomitantes ao ENOS, inclusive com seca moderada em ano com La Niña em intensidade moderada. Sob outra perspectiva, dos anos com influência do ENOS, em poucos deles apresentaram anomalias moderadas a intensas de cheia ou seca.
