Introduction
Through this project, we study the association between domestic business flights in Brazil and the data related to the Covid-19 pandemic
A brief Brazil introduction
Brazil is the largest state in Latin America. It is the fifth largest country on the planet, behind Russia, Canada, the United States and China. Indeed, it covers almost half of the South America territory (47.3%). The currency is the Brazilian Real (BRL) 1 BRL is equivalent to 0.15 EUR.

Brazil has developed its business tourism over the years. Business tourism in Brazil ended 2019 with positive results, according to the Brazilian Association of Business Travel Agencies (Abracorp). Data indicates that business tourism increased 9.5% from the previous year. The hospitality and airline sectors recorded growth of 21.9% and 14%, respectively. We will study 5 brazilian companies that participate to business tourism : Umbrella LTDA, Wonka Company, ACME Factory, 4You and Monsters CYA. Source
Covid-19 pandemic in Brazil
Brazil is the second country most affected by the pandemic, in terms of number of deaths, behind the United States. Indeed, President Jair Bolsonaro has no national strategy to combat the pandemic, which he downplays. He chooses to maintain the country's economy to the detriment of sanitary conditions. He disagrees with most of the governors of Brazilian states, in particular against Governor Joao Doria, who advocates a lockdown against the coronavirus in his state of São Paulo, the country's economic area.

Analysis of the barplot
The barplot on the left represents the ratio of the number of deaths on the number of the total population of 22 countries in the world. We can see that although Brazil is the 2nd most affected country in the world in terms of the number of Covid-19 deaths, the proportion according to the total number of the population makes it possible to see these figures differently. In fact, the Czech Republic is the most affected country if we take into account the number of inhabitants.
