ABSTRACT
The text addresses how the pandemic affects women differently. In particular, we analyze how violence against women finds a favorable scenario for its expansion in these times, which bring social isolation, adopted worldwide, as a measure to reduce contagion. Thus, women start to live 24 hours with those subjects who historically were and are their aggressors. Another element that contributes to the silencing of these women is that isolation removes them from the wider family and community relationships, in which they usually seek support to file a complaint and get out of the condition of violence. There is also a reduction in social and health services, configured as a gateway for women who suffer violence, who were restricted to more immediate actions of care and treatment of infected people, leaving educational work on hold to avoid agglomerations.
