The sars-CoV-2 pandemic has impacted all human activities; however, the economy and health are the ones that have suffered the most. Unfortunately, the pandemic has highlighted some important weaknesses in health care systems around the world, but it has also helped to show the adaptive capacity of medical personnel to face new clinical and epidemiological scenarios. In this context, family physicians have and will have an enormous challenge, given the consequences caused by the pandemic, especially in a discipline in which there is much uncertainty due to the early stages of diseases and in which risk must be managed appropriately; however, the biopsychosocial approach to diseases, as well as person-centered care, are and will be fundamental to mitigate the effects caused by covid-19. This has led Family Medicine to become a pillar of health care systems of different parts of the world, which have often focused more on the second and third levels.
