It is becoming increasingly difficult to ignore the word screening and its relevant usefulness in the current moments that the world is experiencing, under the scourge of the COVID- 19 pandemic.According to the Dictionary of the Royal Spanish Academy, screening is the information or inquiry that is made about something to find out the reality or its circumstances and to screen, to investigate something.
The daily screening in the communities constitutes one of the main actions carried out by Cuba in the face of COVID-19. Searching thoroughly those who may be infected or at risk is essential for the prevention and control of this disease. It constitutes a systematic work that today is carried out with greater intensity in search of respiratory symptoms in the population; therefore, it is necessary to praise the role of students and professors of medical sciences in the prevention and health promotion, constituting part of the actions for the early containment of any possible case of COVID-19.
