A Cumulative incidence at 14 days of infection by SARS-CoV-2 / COVID-19 corresponds to the quotient between the number of new confirmed cases in the 14 days prior to the time of analysis and the estimated resident population, by municipality, as of December 31, 2019, by the National Institute of Statistics, IP. It is usually expressed in number of cases per 100,000 inhabitants.

Example: In the 14 days prior to the day of the analysis, 50 cases of SARS-CoV-2 / COVID-19 infection were attributed to a specific municipality, with a resident population of 150,000 inhabitants.

Accumulated incidence at 14 days = (50/150,000) x 100,000 = 33.3 cases per 100,000 pop.
