Sex work during the COVID-19 pandemic has suffered an impact in terms of the precariousness of the lives of the women who exercise it. Both the vacuum of social and state recognition, as well as the lack of redistribution of resources have been the recurring elements. Both dimensions have accentuated the stigmatization of the group, which oscillates between victimization and criminalization. Despite this, practices of mobility, solidarity and alliances have also emerged that allow them to destabilize the dominant representations that pigeonhole them in stereotyped patterns.
