Suspension of data dissemination of COVID-19 cases and deaths in Cities@

The IBGE informs that, as of June 1st, the dissemination on the website Cities@ on Covid-19 cases and deaths based on data provided by the Ministry of Health (MS) is suspended.

We clarify that the information was obtained daily through automatic access to the MS data file, on https://covid.saude.gov.br/, and that our website Cities@ only reproduced it, without any treatment by the IBGE. However, due to divergence claimed by city halls in several states, in relation to the situation found in their municipalities, a mismatch was found in the codes of the municipalities in the original file, leading to discrepancy. The IBGE has informed the Ministry of Health of the incident and awaits rectification so that it can reproduce the data in Cities@ again.
