With the COVID 19 pandemic, the importance of efficient use of resources during epidemics has been understood again. Triage should be done at every stage of health services in terms of efficient resource use. In order to protect healthcare personnel during the pandemic, it is ne-cessary to have sufficient personal protection equipment and use it appropriately. Pandemic triage should begin from the main entrance of the hospital. Separate areas should be arranged for the evaluation of symptomatic patients. In addition, measures should be taken to prevent other patients from interrupting their treatment.
