SEATTLE, 6 de maio de 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Globalmente, a COVID-19 causou aproximadamente 6,9 milhões de mortes, mais do que o dobro do que os números oficiais mostram, de acordo com uma nova análise do Instituto de Métricas e Avaliação em Saúde (IHME) da Faculdade de Medicina da Universidade de Washington. O IHME descobriu que as mortes por COVID-19 são significativamente subnotificadas em quase todos os países. A análise atualizada mostra que os Estados Unidos tiveram mais mortes por COVID-19 até o momento do que qualquer outro país, um total de mais de 905.000. Por região, a América Latina e o Caribe e a Europa Central, Europa Oriental e Ásia Central foram os mais atingidos em termos de total de mortes. Esse número inclui apenas as mortes causadas diretamente pelo vírus SARS-CoV-2, não as mortes causadas pela pertubação dos sistemas de saúde e comunidades por causa da pandemia.

"Por mais terrível que a pandemia da COVID-19 pareça, esta análise mostra que o dano real é significativamente pior", disse o Dr. Chris Murray, diretor do IHME. "Entender o verdadeiro número de mortes por COVID-19 não apenas nos ajuda a compreender a magnitude desta crise global, mas também fornece informações valiosas aos responsáveis pela elaboração de planos de resposta e recuperação."

Muitas mortes por COVID-19 não são relatadas porque os países notificam apenas mortes que ocorrem em hospitais ou em pacientes com infecção confirmada. Em muitos lugares, os deficientes sistemas de notificações de saúde e baixo acesso aos cuidados com a saúde aumentam este desafio.

A análise do IHME constatou que o maior número de mortes não notificadas ocorreu em países que tiveram as maiores epidemias até o momento. No entanto, alguns países com epidemias relativamente menores observaram um grande aumento na taxa de mortalidade quando contabilizaram mortes não relatadas. Esta análise mostra que eles podem estar correndo um risco maior de uma epidemia mais ampla do que se pensava anteriormente.

"Muitos países dedicaram esforços excepcionais para medir o tamanho do impacto da pandemia, mas nossa análise mostra como é difícil rastrear com precisão uma nova doença infecciosa, que se espalha rapidamente", disse Murray. "Esperamos que o relatório de hoje incentive os governos a identificar e endereçar lacunas em seus relatórios de mortalidade da COVID-19, para que eles possam direcionar com mais precisão os recursos da pandemia." A partir de agora, a modelagem de COVID-19 do IHME, que prevê o curso potencial da pandemia nos próximos meses, será baseada nessas estimativas de mortes totais da COVID-19. A modelagem do IHME é atualizada semanalmente e pode ser acessada no site covid19.healthdata.org.

Metodologia

Essas estimativas são baseadas na metodologia de longa data do IHME para medir o peso de doenças em escala global. Desde 1990, o estudo Global Burden of Disease tem medido o custo humano total das doenças.

O IHME estimou o número total de mortes por COVID-19 por meio da comparação das mortes previstas por todas as causas, com base nas tendências pré-pandemia, com o número real de mortes por todas as causas durante a pandemia. Esse número de "excesso de mortalidade" foi então ajustado para retirar mortes indiretamente atribuíveis à pandemia (por exemplo, devido a pessoas com sintomas não COVID que evitam centros de saúde), bem como mortes evitadas pela pandemia (por exemplo, queda no número de mortes de trânsito devido à mobilidade mais baixa). As estimativas ajustadas resultantes incluem apenas mortes causadas diretamente pelo vírus SARS-CoV-2, que causa a COVID-19. Um relatório detalhado da metodologia está disponível no site do IHME.

Sobre o Instituto de Métricas e Avaliação em Saúde

O Instituto de Métricas e Avaliação em Saúde (IHME) é uma organização independente de pesquisa em saúde global da Faculdade de Medicina da Universidade de Washington que oferece medição rigorosa e comparável dos problemas de saúde mais importantes do mundo e avalia as estratégias usadas para endereçá-los. O IHME está comprometido com a transparência e disponibiliza amplamente essas informações para que os responsáveis por elaboração de políticas tenham as evidências de que precisam para tomar decisões informadas sobre a alocação de recursos para melhorar a saúde da população.
