ABSTRACT
Coronaviruses are a large family of single-stranded ARN viruses that infect a wide variety of animals, including humans. The SARS-CoV-2 virus, which is responsible for the disease called COVID-19, has infected 27,249,308 people and caused 890,971 deaths worldwide until September 7, 2020. Considering the genetic similarities between SARS-CoV-2 and the epidemic coronaviruses SARS-CoV and MERS, presumably they share tropisms for specific cell lines and systemic conditions. The clinical and paraclinical characteristics of this new virus have been described in detail at the pulmonary level, although there is increasing evidence that it is a multisystemic agent. In the present work, we describe the extrapulmonary manifestations of COVID-19 reported to date, including hematological, cardiovascular, neurological, renal, muscular, ophthalmological, endocrine-metabolic, gastrointestinal, hepatobiliary, cutaneous and in special populations: pediatric (including multisystemic inflammatory syndrome) and pregnant women. It is essential to know the systemic complications of SARS-CoV-2 infection when managing these patients, given the potential risk to life of the most serious manifestations. Therefore, it is advisable to consider them in a targeted manner and provide timely treatment as far as possible.Copyright © 2022 Comunicaciones Cientificas Mexicanas S.A. de C.V..

ABSTRACT
For years, many studies has been stressing the importance of incorporating new technologies and tele-education in universities across the globe. However, the implementation of new methodologies that take advantage of educational innovation supported by new technological tools has been slow and gradual. The new reality to which we have been exposed due to the health emergency caused by COVID-19 has hastened the incorporation of these methodologies hastily and has highlighted the lack of resources or training that universities suffer from to face the changes that have occurred. There is a clear need to modernize educational methodologies in higher education to bring it closer to the new generations and their needs, implementing more flexible models that provide transversal competencies. This work proposes a methodology based on social networks as a tool for support and connection between teachers and students. In addition, we explored different combinations of accessible software that allowing us to conclude the steps to follow for the successful implementation of social networks in the classroom.
