Resumen
The COVID-19 pandemic hit the current university educational model without warning, and the health sciences were no exception. Adapting to the new times is essential. With the rise and almost universal access of new communication technologies, it is unjustifiable
not to implement new forms of teaching with professionals in training. Although traditionally medical education has required real practice for the development of skills, it is necessary to complement this education with digital materials and methods available to students and teachers. Disease will change forever the health education and therefore also our way of acquiring the necessary knowledge to sustain it.
