Abstract

The hypothesis that proposed is that the pandemic put each person in a situation of having to learn a way of living with the disease, and with the exceptional measures interposed by the states, to alleviate the consequences of this global epidemic. In that sense, the SARS-CoV-2 disease has not been passed only as a test at the health level, but also as a test at the personal, educational and existential level. From this perspective, it is indicated in this paper that a qualified education is not only an education measured in mathematical and statistical terms, but, and, above all, in terms of listening and obeying the needs of the other. The quality of the educational fact has to do with an entitative quality and a not with a mere formal quality. It is related to being rather than to have.
