The pandemic was declared worldwide in early 2020, since then things have taken an unexpected turn for all of humanity. The pandemic still exists and the epidemiological waves are coming one after the other. I firmly believe that such a study was necessary, with incidence studies being very important.The purpose of the study was to see which age groups are most prone to SARS-CoV-2 infection, which sex shows an increased tropism compared to the new virus. I also wanted to see which of the 12 cities studied have the most cases of positive people tested at our clinic. The method with which we were able to test the people who took part in the study was RT-PCR (Reverse transcription – polymerase chain reaction).The results obtained in the three months in which we have gathered information prove that the pandemic exists and is present every day, new people tested positive appear almost every day (September) and even every day (in October and November). The results also show that children can also be infected with the COVID-19 virus. I also conclude that although few people have symptoms, many do not; the percentages of people with symptoms reported to positives each month increased from 5.36% in September to 9.90% in October to rise to 28.52% in November.
