O Brasil registrou 342 mortes por febre amarela entre julho de 2017 a 17 de abril de 2018, diz o Ministério da Saúde. Em relação ao número de casos, o país tem uma alta de 54,8% em relação ao período entre 2016 e 2017. Atualmente, o país tem 1157 casos confirmados, contra 733 registrados em levantamento anterior.
Quase 100% dos casos continuam sendo notificados no Sudeste, região onde não havia circulação do vírus anteriormente — apenas um caso foi notificado fora da região, em Brasília.
O Ministério da Saúde havia divulgado 330 mortes no dia 3 de abril. Não se pode falar, no entanto, que o número de mortos aumentou em relação ao período atual porque as confirmações sobre as mortes nem sempre são feitas nas mesmas semanas em que ocorrem.
A febre amarela apresenta uma letalidade bem superior em relação às demais arboviroses (doenças transmitidas or mosquito). De todos os casos confirmados, 29,5% morreram.
Os homens são os mais infectados pela febre amarela, com 956 casos (82,6% do total). Já as mulheres, respondem por 17,4% dos casos (201).
Segundo o Ministério da Saúde, a diferença entre o gênero se aplica porque a forma circulante da febre amarela é silvestre — e os homens são os mais expostos à doença por atividades relacionadas ao trabalho.
