| description | Understanding the transmission dynamics of Covid-19 is essential for actions to be taken to contain other outbreaks. In the Amazon region, the interiorization process reflects the territorial occupation pattern. This work aims to investigate the process of interiorization of the epidemic caused by the SARS COV 2 virus in the Amazon region, using epidemiological weeks as the temporal unit. A multiscale approach is adopted, which allows us to indicate four phases of interiorization, from the arrival by air in the capitals of the northern region, to record of cases in traditional communities in the Lower Amazon Health Region. The proposed phases are discussed according to the perception of community leaders regarding the pandemic and health actions carried out by the State. The results show that it is essential to consider the specificities of the Amazon environment when formulating effective health strategies, which did not occur in the case of the referred pandemic. |
