A woman dies every seven hours in Brazil victim of feminicide. Maternal mortality of black women due to COVID-19, the new coronavirus, is almost twice as high as that of white women. Studies were identified using large-circulation international journals found in two electronic databases: Scopus and Embase. This idea of the black and poor woman as disposable or unnecessary has an enormous race influency. In this context, the burden that the pandemic can cause to the country's health system may further expose the structural racism that goes through health care. Maternal mortality of black women due to COVID-19, the new coronavirus, is almost twice as high as that of white women. Thus, the concentration of efforts to approach COVID-19 in medical-centred care measures decontextualized, not only in relation to people's way of living and getting sick, but also, with other knowledge, also corroborate the high incidence and lethality rates of COVID-19.
