Abstract

The years 2020 and 2021 were experienced, in the world, under the perspective of fear of contagion and death by the COVID-19 virus, better known as Coronavirus. In Brazil, negationist movements gained strength by claiming that Covid-19 was a harmless "little flu". The same negationist movements have proposed the use of ineffective drugs for treatment, such as ivermectin, chloroquine, azithromycin, and rectal ozone therapy. Our objective in this paper is to analyze the repercussions about rectal ozone therapy for the treatment of COVID-19. The analysis will be done from the theories of gender and sexuality, specifically the anal policies of Saez and Carrascosa (2016). To subisidize the debate we listed some contents that mark the repercussion of anal ozone therapy: a cartoon collected in the social network Twitter, comments and reports spread in the media (press) and a video in which the president of Brazil, Jair Bolsonaro, comments about the treatment. We use some questions to guide our argumentation: What are the connections between the asshole and COVID-19? What can a contaminated asshole or an asshole at risk of becoming contaminated do? Why would anal treatment cause so much embarrassment in parts of the population?
