These people are living at home with their family or in a nursing home. It has been described that older people may develop an oligosymptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infection or particular symptoms of the disease. Therefore, symptom-based screening is not the most recommended strategy in this scenario. Since it is necessary to detect early cases in the elderly population, this research work analyzes and proposes the best available alternatives for attaining such goal.En la pandemia por la COVID-19, las personas mayores son el grupo que concentra la mayor mortalidad, sobre todo quienes precisan de cuidados de largo plazo por haber perdido su habilidad funcional. Esta población vive en sus domicilios, con la familia o en un centro residencial. Se ha descrito que las personas mayores pueden desarrollar una forma de enfermedad oligosintomática o con una sintomatología clínica particular; por esta razón, las estrategias de tamizaje basadas en síntomas no son las más recomendables. Es necesario detectar de manera precoz a los enfermos en este grupo; por ello, analizamos y proponemos las mejores alternativas disponibles para conseguir este objetivo.Universidad de San Martín de Porres.
