Taking the Matadouro Housing Complex as the research context, popularly known as Portelinha, located in the city of Campos dos Goytacazes, this article presents the results of surveys carried out with residents in order to understand the impact of Covid-19. We wonder about cases of contamination; whether they existed how they were treated and how the drop in formal and informal jobs affected this population. As a data collection methodology, we conducted semi-structured interviews mediated by the use of communication technology, observation incursions and face-to-face interviews, mainly with people who did not have access to the internet. In this sense, we could conclude that the form of urban segregation experienced by the residents contributed to a low number of contamination, greater dependence on social assistance policies and difficulties in entering the formal and informal labor market. One of the lateral findings of our research corroborates the situation of food insecurity experienced in Brazil since the beginning of the pandemic.
