This work aims to demonstrate the impact of the pandemic caused by the Sars-Cov-2 virus, known as Covid-19, on the Guarani and Kaiowá indigenous communities in the state of Mato Grosso do Sul. Specifically, it highlights the failure of the Brazilian state and its agents to provide adequate protection for indigenous children and adolescents. The pandemic has exacerbated the pre-existing conditions of vulnerability, violence, and discrimination suffered by this segment of the population. To carry out this work, references were sought in various fields of knowledge, especially in Law and Anthropology, as well as in fieldwork carried out with communities in the south of the state of Mato Grosso do Sul.
