Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic (coronavirus disease-19) presents itself as a milestone in contemporary sociability, further highlighting the contradictions between 'economy' and 'life' intrinsic to the society and, in particular, to the Brazilian social formation. In this context, the poignant effects of the flexibilization of employment relationships, the limitation of social rights, overexploitation and precarious working conditions, on the one hand, and continuity of inadequate sanitary conditions, inappropriate housing situations, environmental destruction with unpredictable harmful effects and the underfunding and privatization of the Brazilian Unified Health System, on the other hand, are very clear thus hindering the development of emergency solutions that, in fact, present a path for the whole of Brazilian society.
