RESUMEN
Hasta abril de 2020, se contabilizaba una cifra cercana a los dos millones de contagiados con SARS-Cov-2 [1], diseminándose a centenares de países en todo el mundo. El impacto se ha visto reflejado en todos los estratos sociales, afectando a los más carenciados y ha develado las grandes debilidades de las estructuras sanitarias frente a pandemias, en la gran mayoría de los gobiernos. En el mes de diciembre de 2019 aparecen los primeros pacientes con neumonía viral en Wuhan, China. Epidemiológicamente, todos los pacientes habían visitado el mercado de productos exóticos de dicha ciudad. A fines del mismo mes, un joven médico oftalmólogo de Wuhan describe, virtualmente, a siete pacientes con sintomatología similar al SARS y recomienda a sus amigos usar equipos de protección, por este hecho fue castigado por las autoridades policiales y más tarde fallecería por COVID-19. En la primera semana de enero, 2020, las autoridades chinas anuncian que han identificado un nuevo coronavirus (Co-V) en los pacientes que estaban siendo tratados por neumonía viral.
ABSTRACT
Until April 2020, there was about two million people infected with SARS-Cov-2 [1], spreading to hundreds of countries around the world. The impact has been reflected in all social strata, affecting the neediest people and has revealed the great weaknesses of health structures to face the pandemics in the majority of governments. In December 2019, the first patients with viral pneumonia appear in Wuhan, China. Epidemiologically, all the patients had visited the market with exotic products in that city. At the end of the same month, a young ophthalmologist from Wuhan virtually describes seven patients with symptoms similar to SARS and recommends his friends to wear protective equipment, for this fact he was punished by the police authorities and later died by COVID- 19. In the first week of January, 2020, Chinese authorities announce that they have identified a new coronavirus (Co-V) in patients who were being treated for viral pneumonia. A correct diagnosis of infected people is important in the present pandemic; it is based on three fundamental aspects: clinic, complementary examinations and imaging
