Central Defense Hospital «Gómez Ulla» (HCDGU) has played a particularly important role during the COVID-19 pandemic in Spain. In this article we will focus on the role of the Infectious Diseases unit of the HCDGU during its four phases: pre-pandemic preparation, the attention of the quarantine of Spaniard returnees from Wuhan, China on 31 January 2020, the initial hospital care of the first COVID-19 cases in March 2020 and the transformation of such care into a multidisciplinary model based on the antimicrobial stewardship model. Lessons learned and proposals for improvement are also discussed.
