ABSTRACT
Introduction: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by SARS-CoV-2 (Coronavirus type 2 causing severe acute respiratory syndrome) presents systemic manifestations such as fever, anosmia, cough, sore throat and headache, dyspnea, tiredness, malaise, diarrhea. There are reports of developing dysgeusia, xerostomia, and vesiculobullous lesions as oral manifestations related to COVID-19. Objective(s): To identify the most prevalent oral manifestations associated with COVID-19 in a group of Paraguayans. Material(s) and Method(s): An electronic survey was used from January to March 2022. Data were presented as frequencies and percentages and analyzed using the chi2 test. Statistical analysis was performed with R software version 4.0.3. Result(s): The sample consisted of 478 people, most female from 15 to 34 years old. 65.48% stated that they had had at least one oral symptom or sign during COVID-19. The loss in the sensation of bitter tastes (34.31%), the alteration of the taste of food (32.43%), and the loss of sweetness (32.01%) were the most prevalent symptoms. In addition, it was found that among the people who developed moderate to severe COVID-19, there was a more significant number (77.78%) of oral manifestations compared to the participants who developed it mildly (63.92%) (chi2;p= 0.044). Conclusion(s): More than half of the respondents presented oral manifestations, more frequent in those who developed moderate to severe COVID-19. Results will serve as a basis for future research and thus strengthen the surveillance of this disease.
ABSTRACT
The pandemic caused by COVID-19 is a health crisis that has had a major impact on the tourism sector worldwide. In mid-March 2020, all tourism activity in Spain was paralysed, restricting the demand for tourism-related goods and services with measures such as border closures, restriction of non-essential mobility and home confinement. This article analyses the impact of the pandemic on the tourism sector in each of the Spanish autonomous communities, how this health crisis has affected the reception of travellers and, as a consequence, the number of overnight stays, as well as which types of accommodation (hotel, extra-hotel and rural) have seen the greatest reduction in tourism demand. The results obtained confirm the negative effects that tourism activity has suffered due to the pandemic and its incidence in each autonomous community, which has accentuated the existing imbalances in the tourism sector, causing a turning point before and after the health crisis. © 2022 Asociacion de Geografos Espanoles.

ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the frequency of skin manifestations in a period of 3 months after COVID-19. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Prospective and longitudinal study done from October 1st to November 30th, 2020, in which patients older than 18 years, recovered from COVID-19, were evaluated from day 14 to day 90 after the infectious process. RESULTS: There were included 204 patients (113 women and 91 men);51% of patients developed symptoms and hair loss was the most frequent of them, followed by itching and xerosis. Telogen effluvium was the most frequent diagnosis (29.4%), with a mean disease onset of 39.15 days;11.6% developed rash, the most common was the morbilliform and papulosquamous rash. CONCLUSIONS: The most frequent form of cutaneous affection in postinfectious period of COVID-19 is telogen effluvium;however, it is possible to find other manifestations, such as xerosis cutis and rash.

ABSTRACT
The impact of the financial step and tributary collection in Ecuador in the presence of the COVID-19, it is a topic of deep analysis for the understanding of the paper of the taxes as redistributive politics of the wealth of any government and specially of Ecuador, where in this govern has achieved redesign an impositions system it permits include direct and progressive taxes more those who it is corresponded with the constitution and the Nacional plain for the good life (PNBV), situation that it has at present changed, product to the dangerous incidence for the COVID-19, where the governments have imposed measured positive for the health, but that it fall in the economic activity, especially in the paying of taxes of the Ecuador, the commercialization and other economic activities that are found related with the stages that this pandemic has occasioned.

Also the probabilities are calculated of classification mail and some functions of cost of the error to lean it take of decisions on the more significant aspects for the improvement of the financial step and tributary collection in Ecuador, in the presence of the COVID-19.
