During the pandemic, Brazil has lived through three major simultaneous crises. A health crisis, represented by the COVID-19 disease, which had already claimed more than 164,000 lives by November 13, 2020. An economic crisis, represented by a record unemployment rate of 14.4% in the quarter ending in August of that year (13.8 million people). A political crisis, represented by constant conflicts between the Presidency of the Republic and state institutions at federal, state and municipal level. Throughout 2020, the country's president took a stance against the policies of social isolation and wearing masks in public places proposed by the World Health Organization (WHO). In view of this, the aim of this study was to analyze, for the municipality of São Paulo, the correlation between cases and deaths caused by COVID-19 and some socioeconomic indicators, based on data from the municipality's 96 administrative districts. Thus, using district-level data, we tested whether there is a relationship between cases or deaths and any socioeconomic indicator. The results indicated that a higher number of cases or deaths is strongly associated with a larger district population, a larger elderly population, a larger youth population and a larger black/brown people. On the other hand, there was no confirmed relationship between cases or deaths and population density.
