Between 2010 and 2019, acute cases were recorded in most Brazilian states. However, the north of the country represented 84% of these cases.
CUIDA Chagas will be implemented in five municipalities in the five Brazilian macro-regions (North, Northeast, Midwest, Southeast and South). The municipalities were selected in accordance with the Ministry of Health according to public health priorities, considering geographic and epidemiological diversity.
