Situation that has required that the government have had to take measures as the number of infected and deceased has been increasing, so much so that Spain has become considered one of the main sources of contagion after China and Italy.
Being March 14 when the state of alarm was decreed and with it the confinement of the majority of the population in their homes, being exempt from this measure the essential personnel, including the bodies and security forces, those involved in the supply or the cleaning of the city, and of course, the health personnel.
They had to see how their family had to remain confined in the houses while they had to go to work daily where they did not know if they could be infected and thus expose their family to contagion. Several measures adopted, such as confinement, have served to slow down the evolution in terms of the number of new infections, which has made it possible in many localities to prevent the collapse of the health system (Instituto de Salud Carlos III, 2020) (see Illustration 10).
To exemplify this reality that is being experienced by health professionals in this fight against the consequences of COVID-19, below I transcribe an invaluable document from my point of view, since it has been the testimony of a professional who in mode of War Report in his own words has been collecting the day to day of how health professionals have had to deal with this pandemic.

A text written by Mr. Juan Abarca Cidon, doctor in Medicine and Surgery from the San Pablo-CEU University, currently serving as President of HM Hospitals and its CEO, in addition to being the president of the IDIS by its initials in Spanish, (Foundation (Institute for Development and Integration of Health); and the vice president of the Spanish Association of Health Law; who has also been a member of the permanent commission of the Advisory Council of the Ministry of Health for seven years.
Thus, day by day he has been publishing and sharing this experience through social networks to make known the reality of the struggle of health professionals from a unique perspective.
A document that I share with the authors authorization and that reflects the evolution of the pandemic and its effects on both, patients and healthcare personnel.
