Worldview, body and medicine. Notes for an integrative health in COVID-19 times

Abstract

The global crisis that has produced the coronavirus pandemic has revealed the great inequalities that affect planetary society. It becomes relevant to reflect on the elements on which the construction of this macro-system is based. The concept of worldview becomes key in understanding this phenomenon. At the same time, the understanding of the notion of body that is derived from it allows us to glimpse the role that this construct has in the approach to health and disease processes, but also to the interrelation of the person with the environment.
