Abstract
Post COVID-19 syndrome has been recognized as a condition that can have a great impact on the health of individuals, their families and society at large. Although numerous international studies on this emerging public health problem are known, the Latin American region is lagging behind. We conducted a narrative review, where the search and retrieval of information in regional databases such as Scielo and Redalyc failed to identify more than 15 papers on post COVID-19 syndrome in Latin American countries. In light of the lack of information on this condition in Latin America and the Caribbean, we would like to call for more studies to be carried out and for the establishment of public health policies for specialized care.
