Alice
Vermelho
Student of International Relations at Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ), Brazil. Developed the scientific initiation entitled “The relationship between the universality of the SUS and high-risk Venezuelans’ pregnancy”, published in the journal Lugar Comum. During this research, I analyzed the motivations that lead Venezuelan high-risk pregnant leave their country and come to Brazil, something that includes the use of the existing public health system (SUS) in this country. I was able to collect data showing the number of pregnant women who migrated to Brazil, to the state of Roraima, between 2016 and 2019, in addition to observing which public maternity hospitals they went to have the proper prenatal care and also the birth of their children. I was able to analyze the consequences of not guaranteeing a quality public health system in Venezuela, which caused malnutrition to women, lack of basic supplies in hospitals and, also, lack of prenatal care. Thus, when they arrived in Brazil, most of them presented greater health risks - demanding even more from the Brazilian public health system, which, in 2016, collapsed in the state of Roraima.
