ABSTRACT
We carry out this document based on the phenomenon of scientific retractions that have arisen during the pandemic, favored by the dissemination of preprints that sometimes have not had meritorious peer review of all scientific documentation and that leads to the premature publication of findings or data that many times, after a formal analysis, it is shown that they do not provide the comments; on other occasions, these publications are influenced by pharmacists or groups of researchers who seek to dominate the area with anomalous data and which they cannot demonstrate to the public light for analysis. This phenomenon has been observed previously; however, during the COVID-19 pandemic, it has boomed and increased.REFERENCES
