This article presents "Pesquisador Virtual", a computer solution developed by the University of Informatics Sciences (UCI) in collaboration with the Ministry of Public Health (MINSAP), which, through surveys, allows the capture of information about the population's health status, as a complement to the active inquiry process in the context of the epidemiological response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

A mobile and Web solutions are available for the presentation of the survey. The results of the survey (statistical and nominal information) are monitored in real time through graphics and statistics by the different MINSAP structures at the national, provincial and municipal levels, with variable access depending on the level of the structures. With this information, different departments of the health system act immediately, especially Primary Health Care (APS), to prevent the spread of the epidemic and to provide early care for those who may be infected.

Palabras clave : inquiry; computer application; epidemiological survey; coronavirus; COVID-19.
