Prevention is the field that must grow in the health field of all countries, and this has been demonstrated by the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, which has caused, and continues to cause, high morbidity and mortality rates in the population, regardless of social stratum, type of passport, race, etc. Effective pharmacological treatment, which never arrived, revealed that the health systems were unable to meet the requirements of the sick. The only useful tool so far, and for a long time, is prevention. The use of masks, personal distancing and the respective rules of cleanliness are the new weapons of the 21st century that we must learn to use, both health personnel and the community.
