Description: Retrieves health data from Brazil's Unified Health System
        (Sistema Único de Saúde, SUS) at the neighborhood level, with
        2022 Census population, rates per 10,000 inhabitants,
        coordinates and maps. Simple functions return deaths, live
        births, notifiable diseases, hospital admissions, outpatient
        consultations, emergency (SAMU) calls and health facilities by
        neighborhood, choosing the data source automatically: microdata
        with the patient's postal code (CEP), downloaded with the
        'microdatasus' package of Saldanha, Bastos and Barcellos (2019)
        <doi:10.1590/0102-311x00032419>; files and open data published
        by health departments; and regional 'TabNet' tabulators that
        tabulate by neighborhood or district. Postal codes and
        neighborhood names are linked to the official neighborhoods of
        the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE)
        through the National Address Register for Statistical Purposes
        (CNEFE) and the 2022 Census tracts, with quality rules for
        generic postal codes. Function names, arguments, messages and
        documentation are in Portuguese, aimed at Brazilian health
        researchers.
