Authors@R: person("Renato", "Prado Siqueira", email = "rpradosiqueira@gmail.com", role = c("aut", "cre"))
Description: Retrieves public health data from the Department of
        Informatics ('DATASUS') of the Brazilian Unified Health System
        ('Sistema Unico de Saude', 'SUS') through its online tabulation
        service and open-data catalog. It covers the Mortality
        Information System ('SIM'), Live Birth Information System
        ('SINASC'), Hospital Information System of the Unified Health
        System ('SIH/SUS'), Outpatient Information System of the
        Unified Health System ('SIA/SUS'), National Register of Health
        Establishments ('CNES'), Notifiable Diseases Information System
        ('SINAN'), National Immunization Program ('PNI'), Cancer
        Information System ('SISCAN'), and Food and Nutrition
        Surveillance System ('SISVAN'). Contemporary sources from the
        'OpenDataSUS' portal include Events Supposedly Attributable to
        Vaccination or Immunization ('ESAVI'), influenza-like illness
        notifications from 'e-SUS Notifica', individual vaccination
        doses, coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) hospital occupancy,
        and record-level mortality, live-birth and hospital-admission
        microdata. Curated schemas, selective columns, multipart
        downloads and chunk processing support memory-efficient
        analysis of large files. The package also provides grouped
        epidemiological indicators, confidence intervals,
        population-denominator joins, epidemiological calendars, moving
        averages and direct age standardization. An offline reference
        from the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE)
        supports territorial codes, joins and completion of geographic
        time series.
