The COVID-19 pandemic has led underdeveloped countries, such as Brazil, to face not only new challenges, but the exacerbation of so many others that have not even been solved. The countless problems resulting from the pandemic affect the population in an unequal way, both with regard to access to care treatment and measures to mitigate contamination. This article starts from the hypothesis that the deep social inequalities in health, associated with political and economic factors that permeate Brazilian society, integrate conditions that could lead to COVID-19 becoming part of the group of Neglected Diseases. Through a non-systematic literature review, it raises the main characteristics related to the clinical aspects and the demands of the Brazilian social protection system, analyzing the points of contact between them, based on the common matrix of social inequalities. It is believed that the possible ways for this hypothesis not to be confirmed will be to invest in the elaboration of public policies with an emphasis on solidarity, human rights, the strengthening of global governance and the ethical action of each person towards sustainable development for the entire planet
