The analysis of the regulations and the results of the protocol adopted during the concert was carried out by a working group of technicians and researchers from Santa Catarina, with the purpose of evaluating the effectiveness of individual and collective protection measures, as well as monitoring the occurrence of COVID-19 cases following the event. This was both a cultural and a scientific event, where a safety protocol was established to minimize the risk of COVID-19 transmission among the participants, and to monitor the results. 3 The national vaccination strategy was conducted by age strata, in descending order, and on the date of the test event the population in their forties had priority, immediately after health professionals, people with comorbidities and other subgroups provided for in the National Immunization Plan.

With regard to active cases, Santa Catarina presented a downward trend and 74.5% adult intensive care units (ICU) bed occupancy. The total number of deaths at that time was 17,962, which represented a mortality rate of 2,507 deaths per 1 million inhabitants and a case fatality ratio of 1.61%. On the day of the concert, July 29, 2021, according to the Santa Catarina Epidemiological Bulletin the state had already confirmed 1,112,629 COVID-19 cases, which corresponded to a rate of 155,291 cases per 1 million inhabitants.
