ABSTRACT:
This study presents an epidemiological analysis of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) in the municipality of Barbalha/Ceará, from 1980 to 2023. Using official DATASUS data, the variables year of diagnosis, sex, age group, race/color, and education level were examined to outline the sociodemographic profile of the local epidemic. The results indicate a higher incidence among young and adult men, as well as highlighting increased vulnerability in Black populations (brown and black). An inverse correlation was observed between education levels and disease incidence. The increase in cases in recent years reinforces the need for continuous public policies for surveillance, prevention, and treatment. The analysis also highlights the relevance of social and racial inequalities in the infection, indicating the urgency of integrated approaches to address this disease.
