Urbanists were required to review their comprehension of the city and its dynamics due to the impacts of Covid-19’s spread and social behaviour changes. It is proposed in this paper an urban vulnerability index test since it was accentuated by the pandemic in Maceió-AL. It is attempted to systematize potential data to substantiate and recognize capable parameters of indicating disease-related susceptibility levels of social behaviour and spatial analysis. The application in two socioeconomically opposed districts points out, through a slight difference between results, that spatial and infrastructure characteristics cannot be as efficient in Covid-19’s contention as the compliance with prevention recommendations. As the urban environment had to reinvent itself and create other dynamics to deal with the virus, the authors had to create other ways to access, see, and comprehend the city in isolation.
