Summary/Abstract: This article tackles some aspects related to the features of the natural law school of thought, with regard to its traditional approach, as well as possible changes in the perception of concepts drawn by this current in the field of law as a result of social changes generated by the Sars-Cov-2 pandemic. Natural law is one of the most studied school of thought in law, being based on the concept of immutable and aprioristic law. Thus, the features of natural law seem at first sight unaffected by health crises in general and therefore by the health crisis caused by the Covid pandemic 19. The vast majority of natural law theorists accept a dissociation between the features of natural law, in their pure, immutable form and the perception of these features and their applicability in the mundane universe. The perception of natural law paradigms, once almost as immutable and inflexible as the essence of natural law itself, which they reflect in a still imperfect mirror, has been influenced by the obvious perceptual changes of a social nature that the pandemic has caused in the last year and a half. Consequently, this article contains some analyzes and correlations between the social effects of the pandemic and the changes that these effects have brought to the perception of natural law. The finality of the conclusions will try to illustrate a new configuration of the perception of law. naturally in a post-pandemic and even inter-pandemic universe.
