Summary: Objectives: The objective of this research was to describe the prevalence of antibodies to COVID19 in a prison in Ucayali, Peru. Methods: 325 inmates were selected from the Penitentiary Centerin Pucallpa, Peru through simple random sampling. On 06/25/20 and 07/24/20, the fingerpuncture samples were taken from the inmates for COVID-19, the blood sample was obtainedfor the chemo-luminescent microparticle immunoassay tests. Descriptive statistics were usedfor data analysis with InfoStat software. Results: Of the 325 inmates evaluated, 80 were women(25%) and 245 men (75%), the mean age was 43 years (SD 12.44). Regarding the serologicalresults, 137 (42%) were found with positive IgG and 188 (58%) negative IgG. Regarding positiveIgM 145 (45%) and negative IgM 180 (55%). Regarding the distribution of positive cases by sex,we have 47 women and 141 men with a positive result for IgM or IgG. Conclusion: It is concludedthat there is a high number of inmates who have antibodies against COVID-19.

Métodos: Se seleccionaron 325 reclusos del Centro penitenciario en Pucallpa, Perú mediante un muestreo aleatorio simple. Del 25/06/20 y el 24/07/20 se tomaron las muestras punción dactilar de los reclusos para COVID-19, se obtuvo la muestra de sangre para las pruebas de inmunoensayo de micropartículas quimio luminiscentes. Se utilizó estadística descriptiva para en análisis de los datos con el software InfoStat. Resultados: De los 325 reclusos evaluados 80 eran mujeres (25%) y 245 varones (75%), la media de la edad fue de 43 años (DE 12,44). En cuantos a los resultados serológicos se encontraron a con IgG positivo a 137 (42%) e IgG negativo 188 (58%). En cuanto a IgM positivo 145 (45%) e IgM negativo 180 (55%). En cuanto a la distribución de casos positivos por sexo contamos con 47 mujeres y 141 varones con resultado positivo para IgM o IgG. Conclusión: Se concluye con que existe un elevado número de reclusos que tienen anticuerpos contra la COVID-19.SciELO PreprintsSciELO PreprintsSciELO Preprints2022-03-25info:eu-repo/semantics/preprintinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/preprint/view/382810.1590/SciELOPreprints.3828spahttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/article/view/3828/7123Copyright (c) 2022 Arturo Rafael-Heredia, Sebastian Iglesias-Osores, Johnny Leandro Saavedra-Camacho, Jesica Julissa Bocanegra-Mozombite, Walter Román Leveau-Bartra, Orison Armando Leveau-Bartra, Lizbeth M.
