“…García et al (2017) reported that the large amount of debris generated after a disaster represents a risk factor for the population that have to face health problems and the need of rebuilding the city. Silveira et al (2021) verified an increase of almost 300% in the record of waterborne diseases in the 3 months after the occurrence of flooding in an urban area in Brazil. The authors highlighted the importance of formulating and implementing policies to prevent disease outbreaks after hydrometeorological disasters.…”

The amount and complexity of solid waste are intensified with the occurrence of natural disasters, compromising response and recovery actions, causing unplanned spending, environmental damage, and health impacts. The proper management of disaster waste requires knowledge of its characteristics such as quantity, composition, hazard, and management by the identified waste stream. This article aims at the characterization and quantification of disaster waste arisen from an event of intense rains, which occurred in 2013, in the municipalities of the State of Espírito Santo in Brazil. For characterization, an online survey instrument was developed and applied in institutions responsible for waste management. The survey was associated with a documentary analysis of photographic records and information obtained from the government database. Estimation of the amount of waste generated was carried out in a selected set using a method already applied in the south of the country. It was adapted to local characteristics and later compared with surveys carried out by the municipality. The characterization identified sediments, soil and mud, remains of vegetation, furniture, wood, and discarded scrap as the main generated waste. The estimated additional generation for durable consumer goods of around 1,700 tons of waste was lower than the municipal records (7,436.46 t) in the period. It was associated with the specific low weight of the considered affected goods and the inclusion of other residues in the data obtained in the city hall records. The methods used in the characterization and quantification presented application viability, through adjustments, and represented an important contribution to municipal disaster management to make cities able to face climate change, carrying out safe management of disaster waste.

“…Somado a isso, o alto índice pluviométrico, junto à abundância de água e à poluição dos recursos hídricos promovem maior contato das pessoas com fluidos poluídos, propiciando a contaminação. Além disso, a ocorrência de eventos extremos -como enchentes e alagamentos teriam um papel importante na transmissão da doença (WHO, 2019;Silveira et al, 2021).…”

Objetivo: Traçar o perfil epidemiológico da HAV nas regiões brasileiras entre 2012 e 2021, quantificar os casos, a mortalidade e a abrangência vacinal de Hepatite A no Brasil, bem como o impacto na população atingida. Método: O estudo é retrospectivo, descritivo e ecológico, que utilizou os dados do SIM/DataSUS, SI-PNI/DataSUS, SINAN/DataSUS, do Painel de Saneamento do Brasil e do Sistema Nacional de Informações de Saneamento (SINAN) no período de 2012 a 2021. Resultado: Constatou-se uma maior incidência e prevalência em homens, adultos e idosos em todo o país, especialmente em regiões em que o consumo de água não tratada e o saneamento básico ineficiente são mais evidentes, como no Norte e no Nordeste. Sobre o grupo etário dos homens adultos também se ressalta uma adição na via de transmissão do vírus com a via sexual oral-anal. Ademais, embora o alcance vacinal se mostre eficiente, também mostra números a serem melhorados, como a inclusão da vacina no Plano nacional de imunização (PNI) dos idosos. Conclusão: Adverte-se que apenas as melhorias em condições sanitárias não bastam para erradicar uma doença, a vacinação, hábitos mais cuidadosos com a saúde e comportamentos mais saudáveis são fundamentais para atingir esse objetivo.
