Item Comportamentos e ações de vida diária e sua relação com a infecção pelo coronavírus(Universidade Brasil) Carvalho, Jucilene Santos de; Assis, Lívia; Tim, Carla Roberta; Santos, Laurita dosItem COVID-19 e os mecanismos de infecção relacionados aos hábitos e estilo de vida(Universidade Brasil, 2022) Carvalho, Jucilene Santos de; Santos, Laurita dosThe COVID-19 pandemic presented itself as a major public health problem for Brazil and the world. It had an impact on health indicators such as morbidity, mortality and health expenditures, and important economic impacts related to the closure of establishments and social isolation. Given this scenario, this research was proposed for the municipality of São Caetano de Sul with the objective of analyzing the relationship between behaviors and life habits of people with coronavirus infection, and comparing the data between two specific moments of circulation of different variants. – Delta and Omicrôn. The data presented in this research are the result of 496 valid interviews. In all, there were 218 positive tests for COVID-19 and 278 negative ones. Among the positives, 44 during the circulation of the Delta variant and 176 during the circulation of the Omicrôn variant. The data analyzed and presented demonstrate how the universe of coronavirus infection is multifactorial and dependent on many conditions. This characteristic is even accentuated when the scenarios of two circulations of different variants are compared, as presented in the study. Some data are similar to what the pandemic presented at a global level (such as data related to gender), but others are well circumscribed to the Brazilian reality, or even regional, considering the region of residence where the participants lived (such as data related to race/color). Some behaviors associated with coronavirus control in national and international literature did not have similar results in this research, such as the number of vaccine doses, social isolation and working conditions. There was no significant variation between respondents who tested positive or negative. This situation can be explained by the profile of the respondents of this survey: they were symptomatic people who sought a diagnostic support service to find out whether or not they were contaminated by the coronavirus.
