In Brazil data from the "Brazilian Population Registry" may be incomplete for several reasons (e.g. quality of data, system bug, revisions like this one "546,490 records of different years and months have disappeared from the system").

The Ministry of Health offers data from 1996 to 2019 in this site. It has options to filter and aggregate the data in various ways.

Thank you - this is very helpful!
WM will take 2015-2019 data from MOH in the next update.

Do you know if and when MOH planes on releasing 2020 data?

Do you know if and when MOH planes on releasing 2020 data?

I have no clue, IIRC in the previous years it took 2-3 months, but with the pandemic I'll be happy if it's even released before July this year.

We have decided for now to stick with Brazil's Population Registry Data, and added this note to the README:

Note: Brazilian Population Registry seems to be downward biased compared to 2015-2019 data from Brazil's Ministry of Health (http://tabnet.datasus.gov.br/cgi/deftohtm.exe?sim/cnv/obt10uf.def) by about 7 to 10%. For now we chose to stay with the Population Registry Data in order to best insure consistency with 2020-2021 data.

After consulting with Marcelo Oliveira and Otavio Ranzani, we have decided to change our source and method for Brazilian all-cause mortality data.
See README for details.
