If you are stuck with an abusive partner, they'd probably abuse you even without a lockdown. Such sad incidents have always happened before pandemics. You are not identifying the actual root of the problem and the actual solution. I've not heard of any country closing hotlines and police service due to covid and any person could sure go out in order to seek help. That would be an excuse to break a curfew, as you can imagine.
Pragmatically speaking it is harder for anyone to distance themselves from or mitigate the extent of domestic abuse, while they are stuck at home with their abuser. I've done some research on this and there are actually many steps that need to be taken in order to escape safely, and some of them depend on places being open, and having multiple options in case one doesn't work...
Yeah, if the victim is trying to cover up the abuse while escaping. They'll make it harder for themselves than it shall be. The safest way would be to call emergency on loudspeaker - before it's too late. Some ppl will always rather find excuses than do what they actually need to do.
What's the difference if there's no lockdown? You are at work during daytime and take abuse only in evenings and weekends. But it's not measured in time rather in events. Which could happen any time. What else - the local 24/7 working fast food is closed so you can't run there. Is it there where one shall actually run? In abusive relationships, the victim's behaviour to a large part facilitates them. That's the real problem they have - that they will stay with someone beating them, no matter if they are in or off work and if the closest McDonalds is open or not.
Have you taken the COVID 19 vaccine?
