    Currently, a global challenge is being faced to overcome this health crisis, as since the outbreak of pneumonia of unknown causes was detected in the city of Wuhan, China, important studies have been conducted to provide knowledge and counteract this new virus, COVID-19. The factors predisposing patients to a severe state during COVID-19 include variables such as age (over 65 years), heart and vascular diseases, chronic kidney disease, chronic lung diseases, diabetes mellitus, obesity, neoplasms, immunosuppression, and pregnancy. The pandemic has caused high lethality in the Lambayeque region, overwhelming hospitals. Certainly, it is everyone's task to contribute to stopping the outbreaks that have emerged in such a short time; therefore, the general population is advised to follow all recommendations to prevent infection. Hematological testing is one of the most important laboratory tests, which through a complete blood count can identify imbalances in the patient's body and help determine the appropriate treatment. This research aims to relate hematological parameters and COVID-19 severity in people over 60 years old treated at the HNAAA Essalud Chiclayo laboratory from January to April 2021.
