On March 20, 2020 the government of Argentina imposed a nationwide lockdown due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. During lockdowns there has been a growth in domestic violence and sexual abuse reports in Latin America. Argentina registered a 70 percent increase in phone calls to the family violence helpline in April of that year.
