With volume 4 and the two issues of volume 5, the Revista Salud y Sociedad Uptc resumes its academic activity under the edition of the editorial and works evaluation subcommittee of the Faculty of Health Sciences, group dynamics of presentation of contents coming from some works of researchers of the faculty and its scientific support networks. These two volumes (4 and 5) have been made taking advantage of the time of confinement in pandemic by the Covid-19 since March, as an incentive to the non-presence. The Health cloisters are from home, using all the tools of the Information and Communication Technologies, urgently and probably as a change of paradigm and improvement in the didactics. A different space has been created that gives great relevance to the methodology adopted after the transformation to credits in 2004, modifying the work of teachers and students with synchronous face-to-face sessions, which have their own difficulties due to the non-public access to free internet, and changes in the way of working: nowadays, a more proactive student is observed. Professionals in training today have many more digital skills and the appropriation of knowledge is given from home and anywhere in the world. Families have also learned about biosecurity and protection against SARS-CoV2 viral infection, the reason for its severity at the pulmonary level has been studied and there is a scientific feeling of being inside a universal epidemiological laboratory, in real time. It is expected that this significant learning of minimum public health measures to mitigate the epidemic that have made students and teachers of health sciences in Boyacá and in all the regions of influence, complements by necessity, the competences in the being of the future professionals, with community and local leaderships that recover the process of health disease and that is favorable to all.
