The outbreak/pandemic investigation approach is a challenging, necessary and challenging activity for health professionals and epidemiologists. This approach allows epidemiology and surveillance services to deepen their knowledge of the disease, collect historical data on pandemic episodes, characterize vulnerabilities, develop hypotheses and intervene risk factors in a given environmental and sociocultural context with local action and a global perspective. A syndemic approach is considered, in such such a way that it combines aspects of interconnected social determinants and deepening in the pandemic.

Palabras clave : pandemics; syndemic; historiography; systems analysis.
