The objective was to carry out an analysis of the number of notified cases of the human rabies virus in the northern region of Brazil in the period from 2000 to 2019. This is an observational study, based on epidemiology, based on data from SINAN in the period from 2000 to 2019. 2019. Maps and graphs were prepared for spatial analysis of the number of cases. In the period from 2000 to 2006, 61 cases were observed. Since, in 2004 and 2005 there were some outbreaks. In the period from 2006 to 2015 there were no notifications. In the years 2016 to 2019, 16 cases were reported. From 2000 to 2019, 316 cases were registered in the country. The Northeast region had the highest number of cases in Brazil during the study period (N = 204; 65%), followed by the North region (N = 77; 24%). Thus, the optimization of disease control, through the adoption of regulatory resources, stands out as the best measure for the control of rabies.
