摘 要:Brazil was one of the countries most impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic,with a cumulative total of nearly 700,000 deaths by early *** country s federative units were unevenly affected by the pandemic and adopted mitigation measures of different scopes and *** was intense conflict between the federal government and state governments over the relevance and extent of such *** build a simple regression model with good predictive power on state COVID-19 mortality rates in *** results reveal that the federative units urbanization rate and per capita income are important for determining their mean mortality rate and that the number of physicians per 100,000 inhabitants is important for modeling the mortality rate *** on the fitted model,we obtain approximations for the levels of administrative efficiency of local governments in dealing with the pandemic.
