Method: exploratory and descriptive research, with a qualitative approach, in a male prison complex in the Federal District. 31 inmates who were in superisolation participated, after testing positive for COVID-19. Data were collected between June and July 2021, using two instruments: socioeconomic questionnaire and semi-structured interview script.
