Abstract

Background and Objectives: Covid-19 is a global health issue with high morbidity and mortality rates, as well as impact on health systems. The study aimed to analyze the profile and factors associated with self-report of Covid-19 in the context of Primary Health Care. Methods: This is a cross-sectional, observational study conducted with users of the Family Health Strategy in the city of Rondonópolis (Mato Grosso State). Data were collected at health units using a semi-structured questionnaire. Results: Among 400 survey participants, 77 (19.25%) reported a Covid-19 diagnosis. Variables associated with self-report were higher income, having health insurance, and being in the labor market. The main clinical symptoms were myalgia, fever, and headache. Mild cases of the disease predominated and sentinel units were the main health service used. Conclusion: The data point to the impact of social variables on the diagnosis of Covid-19 and reveal the importance of services offered by the Brazilian Unified Health System (SUS) during the pandemic.
