    Document: In 2009, the MoH established a mandatory notification for hospitalized cases of severe acute respiratory illness (SARI) through the National Disease Notification System (SIVEP-GRIPE). We retrieved all SARI cases reported on the SIVEP-GRIPE system between 26 th February and 30 th March. Those cases were included regardless of COVID19 confirmation as a proxy of COVID19 case. This proxy was used to calculate the time dependent reproductive number R(t) of confirmed COVID19 cases and was chosen in order to minimize the impact of shortage of RT-PCR tests. In addition, we also calculated R(t) using the daily number of COVID19 confirmed cases from the São Paulo state epidemiological records.
