The main contribution of this article is to report general statistics about COVID-19 in Brazil, based on analysis of accumulated series of confirmed cases, deaths and lethality rates, in addition to presenting graphs of moving averages for states and municipalities. The data show that the pandemic in Brazil has grown rapidly since February 25th (date of the first reported case). Furthermore, the lethality rate of COVID-19 in Brazil is greater than in many other Latin American countries (Chile, Argentina, Uruguay and Paraguay). However, the number of new confirmed cases in Brazil has little statistical relevance because only a small part of the population has been tested. In relation to Brazilian municipalities, we highlight the 10 states with the highest lethality rates, ranked from highest to lowest. Also, predictions about the increaseor decrease innew cases and deaths for states and capital cities are presented. These results can help managers and researchers to better guide their decisions regarding COVID-19.

本文的主要贡献是根据对累计确诊病例、死亡人数和死亡率的系列分析，报告巴西 COVID-19 的一般统计数据，此外还提供各州和市的移动平均值图表。数据显示，自2月25日（首例报告病例日期）以来，巴西疫情迅速蔓延。此外，巴西的 COVID-19 致死率高于许多其他拉丁美洲国家（智利、阿根廷、乌拉圭和巴拉圭）。然而，巴西新增确诊病例数几乎没有统计相关性，因为只有一小部分人口接受了检测。对于巴西的城市，我们重点介绍了死亡率最高的 10 个州，按从最高到最低的顺序排列。此外，还对各州和首府城市的新病例和死亡人数的增加或减少进行了预测。这些结果可以帮助管理人员和研究人员更好地指导他们有关 COVID-19 的决策。
