INTRODUCTION:

Viral hepatitis is a major public health problem. It is necessary to understand the epidemic, verifying the combination of biological and demographic characteristics.

METHODS:

This is an analytical ecological and epidemiological study. Confirmed case data from the Notification Disease Information System (SINAN) were used.

RESULTS:

From 2009-2018, SINAN confirmed 404,003 viral hepatitis cases in Brazil, with 12.49%, 37.06%, and 48.28% cases of hepatitis A, B, and C, respectively.

CONCLUSIONS:

In Brazil, 4,296 deaths were associated with viral hepatitis, of which 36.66% were associated with acute hepatitis B. The proportional distribution of cases varied among the five Brazilian regions. / CAPES and Universidade Federal do Pará
