Covid-19 is responsible for high mortality in all countries, with the maternal population it is no different. Countries with a high rate of maternal mortality have deficiencies in the health care of pregnant women and women who have recently given birth, which will certainly be enhanced in a situation of overload in the health system, as occurred in this pandemic. Understanding the impact of the pandemic on maternal health is essential to discuss public policies and assist in solutions to future crises. With that in mind, we present the Brazilian Obstetric Observatory COVID-19 (OOBr COVID-19). OOBr COVID-19 is a dynamic panel with analyzes of the cases of pregnant and postpartum women with Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARI) during the pandemic due to the new coronavirus. In this article, we present data loading, case selections, and processing of the variables for the analyzes available in OOBr COVID-19.
