Abstract Introduction: The COVID-19 pandemic continues to impact the lives of millions of people, from the health, social and economic point of view, with strong impact on social security, youth and adult education, and other areas that, combined, directly impact the world economy. Objective: To present a review of some relevant works about the COVID-19 pandemic in order to demonstrate effective actions to face the pandemic and its impact on public health. Method: Bibliographic analysis of cross-sectional cohort studies that use official data on the number of cases, number of deaths, and doses applied according to age, dose, and type of vaccine supported by epidemiological models. Results: Despite the more than 460 million doses applied, we still have significant portions of the population without the complete vaccination schedule, with a real possibility of a new wave of COVID-19 by the end of the year 2022. Conclusions: SARS-CoV-2 continues to circulate strongly throughout Brazil and the world, increasing the possibility of new variants that would result in new waves of the pandemic, which can be avoided by measures implemented by the public authorities, such as the intensified vaccination campaigns, non-pharmaceutical measures and public information campaigns.
