dc.description.abstract COVID-19 is a disease caused by a new coronavirus that presented an epidemic focus in China in December 2019 and was declared as a pandemic months later. Consequently, the health systems of most countries implemented preventive measures for their population, thus affecting health personnel, which is the first response force. According to the World Health Organization, 37 million health workers fell ill with COVID-19. In this article, we seek to identify strategies for the prevention of contagion of health personnel by COVID-19 that have obtained favorable results and present measures applicable to the Peruvian reality, focused on the personnel that make up the diagnostic process of COVID-19 and the health centers in operation during the health emergency due to COVID-19. It is concluded that temporary confinement in rotating days of health personnel, traffic control bundling, and adequate supply of personal protective equipment were those that have favored the lower incidence of cases of contagion in health personnel in the countries where they were used. en_US
