The COVID-19 pandemic has caused devastation of great proportions that implies physical, economic, social and moral destruction, it has put great nations against the wall and a tremor in unwritten rights such as the human right to accompany a loved one or a familiar to not dealing with death alone, in itself it has reminded us of the finitude of the human being. The following article is the result of analyzing the current state of the human right to say goodbye to determine the minimum social responsibility actions to deal with people in critical states, who leave and with family members who remain. Burial practices and procedures have been identified in Mexico from the moment of death to delivery of the body and care. A reflection on this situation contributes to recognizing the right to say goodbye and to propose that critical patients with COVID-19 can say goodbye to their relatives in this impasse between life and death, thereby avoiding that the mourning of those who remain will be complicated in their physical, psychic and mental health and they be able to say goodbye to those who are leaving with dignity, it is necessary to promote the accompaniment of those who are now leaving and to ponder this human right not yet validated to say goodbye.
