Humanity has been on its way accompanied by epidemics, as man has evolved, he has faced different problems that have affected most of society. In the last 50 years, more viruses have appeared that have affected different regions and multiple countries; but one of the most distributed worldwide is COVID-19. The objective is to offer some information related to this pandemic and its evolution in different countries. The bibliographic review method was used even though some bibliographies are very recent, but it has allowed us to know their behavior and follow-up. The results of the countries most affected by this pandemic are shown, where it could be said that Italy has increasingly affected all of them and some countries in Asia, the United States, Latin America, and the Caribbean have been the most affected.
