The pandemic caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus has been a true health tragedy worldwide, generating serious consequences of morbidity and mortality, especially in older people. The General Defense Hospital (HGDZ) has participated in Operation Balmis of the Armed Forces (FAS) to fight against this pandemic. It has required HGDZ great flexibility and adaptability to face the high demand for admission of patients infected with this virus. To this aim, it has implemented a growing set of measures focused on strengthening the response in the health field and reducing contagion rates.
