目的：分析巴西里约热内卢市社区人均收入与COVID-19累计发病率之间的关系。方法：以社区为分析单位的生态学研究。计算每10万居民的累积发病率和潜在混杂变量（性别、种族和年龄）的中位数。多元分析包括分位数回归，估计第10 ~ 90个分位数每5个分位数的可变收入的回归系数，以验证收入与发病率的关系。结果：该市的新发病例率为每10万居民36.58例。一般而言，最富裕地区的发病率最高。多重分析与这一观察结果一致，因为人均收入影响了所有分析的样本，回归系数中位数为0.02（p值
Objective: to analyze the relationship between per capita income and the cumulative incidence of COVID-19 in the neighborhoods of the city of Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brazil. Method: an ecological study using neighborhoods as units of analysis. The cumulative incidence rate per 100,000 inhabitants and the median of potential confounding variables (sex, race, and age) were calculated. Multiple analysis included quantile regression, estimating the regression coefficients of the variable income for every five percentiles from the 10th to 90th percentiles to verify the relationship between income and incidence. Results: the city's rate was 36.58 new cases per 100,000 inhabitants. In general, the highest rates were observed in the wealthiest regions. Multiple analysis was consistent with this observation since the per capita income affected all percentiles analyzed, with a median regression coefficient of 0.02 (p-value
