Introduction: the emergence of Covid-19 pandemic resulted in more than 180 countries being affected today. Cuba has not been exempt from this situation and its first epidemiological event took place in Camilo Cienfuegos community, Consolacion del Sur municipality, Pinar del Río province, which tested the mobilization capacity of the medical personnel, and of the sectors that in one way or another collaborated in the period of quarantine between March 31 and May 1, in order to avoid the spread and the onset of new cases.Objective: to characterize the behavior of Camilo Cienfuegos community during Covid-19 period of quarantine.
Methods: empirical methods such as observation, documentary review and interviews with members of the medical team and community leaders were applied.
Development: a characterization of the community in the quarantine process was accomplished complying with the indications of the Municipal Defense Council to cope with and prevent the onset of Covid-19 new cases.
Conclusions: the historical characterization of Camilo Cienfuegos community allowed the Municipal Defense Council to have a testimonial tool on the treatment of Covid-19, which facilitated the further requests or enquiries of posterior episodic situations of this disease in the province and the country, as well as its importance for decision making in coping with this pandemic.
