In September, 17% of respondents said they were more concerned about health. The index has now risen by six percentage points, distancing itself from public safety, which had the same 17% three months ago and now registers 10% as the main problem.

Education, which fluctuated from 11% to 10%, ties with violence on the list.

In terms of security, 50% rate Lula's management as bad and very bad, compared to 29% who consider it regular and 20% excellent or good. At the same point in Jair Bolsonaro's government in 2019, 27% approved of the Planalto's work in the sector.
