Résumé

This work is approached from the reflection on the value of life, approaching me from an existential point of view, because when death comes so directly and drowns us, life is revalued in its deepest sense. This crisis of COVID-19 presents questions of existential, ethical and forward-looking scope in essential aspects such as the elderly and the end of life, which we must face from the very core and dynamism of the human being, from the thrill of his being flesh: sensitivity, vulnerability and freedom.
