Resumen

There are works on immunological resistance in animals and humans on the defensive capacity against pathogens such as bacteria and viruses. Foods are not strictly medicines, but they contain nutrients such as proteins, vitamins, and minerals, which allow a good state of health and constitute a response to various infectious diseases. The study focuses on the eating habits of Huanchaco fishermen who feed mainly on fish. The objective was to determine if fish-based nutrition would be related to the immune response to COVID-19. The results showed a mortality of 6.66%. © GKA Ediciones, authors.
