Two spreadsheets systematize and analyze the content of Brazilian state vaccination plans against COVID-19. The 'Eixos de Pesquisa (Consolidado)' sheet compares state plans to the national framework across themes like epidemiology, logistics, communication, and budget. The 'Tabela Grupos Prioritários' sheet details the criteria each state used to define professional and population priority groups for early vaccination. This dataset was created by researcher Elize Massard da Fonseca for the Base Documental dos Planos de Vacinação contra a Covid-19 no Brasil project.
Use Cases
- Compare policy alignment between states and the national plan based on thematic axes like logistics and communication.
- Analyze variation in the definition of priority groups for vaccination across Brazilian states.
- Study the inclusion criteria for professional categories such as healthcare workers and teachers.
- Identify differences in the treatment of specific population groups like indigenous communities and the elderly.
Strengths
- Directly compares state-level plans against a national framework across defined thematic axes.
- Systematizes detailed criteria for defining professional and population priority groups.
- Dataset is part of a documented project base covering the period 2020-2023.
Limitations
- Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
- Row count and file formats are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
- Data may reflect geographic and temporal bias inherent to the specific project scope.
