AbstractWe review important aspects of the pandemic influenza A (H1N1) at the time of declaring the end of the contingency in Mexico. The pre-established surveillance system had to be modified during the course of the epidemic. From the first epidemic weeks, viral monitoring recorded the displacement of other pathogens by the pandemic virus. Patients at high risk for complications were identified together with the need for early treatment with antiviral drugs, thus avoiding the saturation of intensive care beds. The difficulties of surging services for seriously ill patients are described. Preventive measures such as the use of masks and hand hygiene are reviewed, as well as the vaccination drive and the difficulties for its application in health personnel. The review concludes with the need to learn the teachings of the pandemic, describing the necessary elements to prepare against the next one.
