Actions by the Brazilian Government Regarding Elderlies’ Conditions in Times of COVID-19
Journal Title: Annals of Bioethics & Clinical Applications - Year 2021, Vol 4, Issue 1
Abstract
Brazil, as well as other countries, is facing a health crisis due to the pandemic of Covid-19. In this context, many lives have been cut short because of entanglements of the contagion. Among people that have been contaminated, a great number is of elderlies, whose deaths add to the increase of figures, which have already reached the number of 247 thousand people, being that more than 100 thousand of them are older than 60 years of age (BRASIL, 2021). Whereupon, and under feminist perspectives, we aim to identify and analyze the main actions of the Brazilian Executive Power to this specific public.
