COVID-19 has shaken countries at all levels, putting public health at risk. Global efforts have allocated funding for the development of research for the development of vaccines, digital tools, epidemiologic, social, and economic studies. Although these efforts have been developed worldwide, not all countries have prioritized the same topics and may have a different impact on solving problems and containing the spread of COVID-19. A descriptive study was conducted with secondary data of "Special Projects COVID-19" in order to analyze the prioritization of proposals and projects to Peruvian needs in the face of pandemic. Two calls were made by the Peruvian research council (CONCyTec); the first with five areas and the second with seven. The global amounts financed by each call were 342,857 USD (1,200,000 soles) and 700,000 USD (1,750,000 soles), respectively. A total of 1,101 research projects were presented, 600 (54.5%) in the first call. In this call, 176 (29.3%) projects were from technological development and innovation and 29 were winners (with a global budget of 1,711,907.25 USD /6,077,270.75 soles). In the second call, 120 (23.9%) projects were from the area of Social and economic research and 21 were winners (global budget of 1,284,002.25 USD/558,208.55 soles) (p=0.043). The largest proportion of winning projects in both calls was 12 (41.4%) in Technological developments and innovation, then five (17.2%) each in telehealth and mobile health, and epidemiological and social studies. Across both calls, 214 (55.8%) and 160 (51.9%) projects were of private organizations and universities, respectively. This research shows ~2% of rapid response "Special Projects COVID-19" were financed by the CONCyTec call with over a million dollars of funds. Although the main topics were technological innovation, detection systems, and vaccines, these priorities have not had a global impact on the epidemiological development of the pandemic in Peru.
新冠疫情撼动了各国，威胁到公共卫生。全球各国纷纷投入资金，用于疫苗研发、数字工具开发、流行病学、社会和经济研究。尽管这些努力在全球范围内展开，但并非所有国家都优先考虑同样的议题，在解决问题和遏制新冠疫情传播方面的影响可能也有所不同。本研究采用二次数据分析方法，对秘鲁“特殊项目新冠疫情”进行了描述性研究，以分析在疫情背景下，秘鲁的需求与项目提案之间的优先顺序。秘鲁研究理事会（CONCyTec）进行了两轮招标，第一轮有五个领域，第二轮有七个领域。每个招标的全球融资额分别为 342857 美元（120 万索尔）和 700000 美元（175 万索尔）。共提交了 1101 个研究项目，其中 600 个（54.5%）在第一轮招标中。在第一轮招标中，有 176 个（29.3%）项目来自技术开发和创新，29 个项目中标（全球预算为 17119072.5 美元/6077270.75 索尔）。在第二轮招标中，有 120 个（23.9%）项目来自社会和经济研究领域，21 个项目中标（全球预算为 12840022.25 美元/558208.55 索尔）（p=0.043）。在两轮招标中，获胜项目比例最大的是技术开发和创新领域的 12 个项目（41.4%），其次是远程医疗和移动医疗领域的 5 个项目（17.2%）和流行病学和社会研究领域的 5 个项目（17.2%）。两轮招标中，分别有 214 个（55.8%）和 160 个（51.9%）项目来自私营组织和大学。本研究显示，CONCyTec 招标资助的快速反应“特殊项目新冠疫情”约占 2%，资金超过 100 万美元。尽管主要议题是技术创新、检测系统和疫苗，但这些优先事项并没有对秘鲁疫情的全球流行病学发展产生全球影响。
