“…Such statements are consistent with information from the GMF, published on October 5, 2020, in which it reported that to date 70,519 tests for diagnosis of COVID-19 have been performed on incarcerated persons. Unfortunately, this represents only 9.42% of the prison population in the country (DUARTE, 2021).…”

“…The low visibility given to the Brazilian prison system and the absence of public debates about COVID-19 in this population, even with favorable conditions for the spread of the pathology, people deprived of liberty have rights to the same conditions of prevention and assistance as the rest of the population, as recommended in the Federal Constitution (DUARTE, 2021).…”

“…The increase in the number of deaths of inmates due to COVID-19 expresses the violation of rights, permanent and structural, that historically constitutes the Brazilian prison system. It is an announced pandemic revealed by the public unveiling that focuses on society and the State in the perpetration of these rights violations (DUARTE, 2021).…”

Objective: The objective of this study is to analyze the number of cases and deaths from COVID-19 in the Brazilian prison system in 2020. Methodology: This is an observational, analytical and ecologically designed study of COVID-19 deaths in the Brazilian prison system in Apr/Dec/2020. Data were collected from epidemiological bulletins at the National Council of Justice website. As a unit of analysis, the number of confirmed cases and deaths from COVID-19 were selected for the months of exposure to SARS-CoV-2, in the regions of Brazil and Federative Units in the year 2020. Correlation analysis and linear regression of the COVID-19 lethality percentage per month were performed. Results: In the year 2020 the total number of confirmed cases of COVID-19 through RT-PCR testing and rapid testing in persons deprived of liberty was 41,971, including the two cases from the Federal Prison System. The total number of deaths was 129. The case fatality rate decreased every month and the Southeast region presented a higher number of reported cases and deaths. Final thoughts: The pandemic due to the novel coronavirus has played a revealing role in the unsanitary and inhumane conditions of the Brazilian prison system. It is believed that from the panorama of the pandemic in the prison system in the year 2020, they can subsidize comparative studies of the subsequent years.

A presente pesquisa tem como objetivo verificar o acesso ao direito à saúde no sistema prisional brasileiro na pandemia da COVID-19 a partir da análise de como a superlotação, a falta de estrutura de atendimento médico nos presídios e a ausência de políticas públicas eficazes aplicadas pelo Estado brasileiro contribuíram para a incidência acentuada do vírus no sistema prisional. Para isso, utiliza-se o método de abordagem indutivo, com revisão da literatura sobre a temática de estudo para coleta de dados, considerando o sistema prisional em todo o território brasileiro como amostra. Como resultado do estudo, observou-se que a população prisional sofreu uma pequena redução no início do período pandêmico, voltando a crescer posteriormente, sem alteração significativa no quadro de superlotação. Quanto à assistência médica, ficou evidenciada a desproporção entre o número de estabelecimentos e equipes de saúde intramuros e a quantidade de presos. Assim, sem uma atuação contundente do Poder Público junto às administrações prisionais, não apenas a população privada de liberdade, como também os agentes penitenciários, tiveram seus direitos fundamentais violados, vivenciando a pandemia de COVID-19 em meio à superlotação, ao atendimento médico precário e insuficiente, com imposições estatais que promovem a restrição de direitos dos presos, sem aplicação de medidas de desencarceramento ou de melhorias estruturais nos presídios, em um completo descaso acobertado pela subnotificação.
