The article presents conjunctural aspects that show the growth of restrictive freedom policies in the framework of a Penal State and the challenges that are presented in the political agenda regarding the necessary adoption of emerging measures to mitigate contagion situations by COVID-19 in the prison system and socio-educational. It presents data on the large percentage of incarceration in Brazil, as well as on the contagious infectious diseases that are evident in the prison population and that reveal the exposure of this population to risks of contagion in pandemic situations. It also exposes data that reveal public administration strategies adopted to mitigate the effects of the recent pandemic on this population, highlighting the particularity of those adopted by different states in the country, such as Amazonas. In its conclusion, it problematizes aspects of the criminal policy developed at the intersections of institutions and bodies such as the police, the courts, the prisons and Organs management bodies; highlighting that they operate within the dimensions of race, class and gender. From these aspects, it emphasizes the importance of registering important intervention proposals that bring mitigating impacts on the daily life of prisons in Brazil.
