GUTIERREZ-BOLANOS, Johann; TRUJILLO-AGUDELO, Daniela; BEDOYA-LONDONO, Ana María  and  HIDRON-BOTERO, Alicia. COVID-19 infection prior to the beginning of the epidemic in Colombia. Infect. [online]. 2021, vol.25, n.4, pp.296-299.  Epub July 19, 2021. ISSN 0123-9392.  https://doi.org/10.22354/in.v25i3.964.

The identification of Coronavirus type 2 in March 2020 in Colombia has generated paradigms and unknows in the national epidemiology regarding the approxi mate arrival of the virus and its mechanisms of local dissemination in the main departments and cities. We present the case of a patient with COVID-19 that had its onset of symptoms two weeks before the declaration of the first case in Colombia, wich moves the circulation of the virus and local transmission in Colombia prior the declaration of the epidemic.

Keywords : Coronavirus infections; pneumonia; adult respiratory distress syndrome.
