Journal Title: Revista Peruana de Medicina Experimental y Salud Publica - Year 2008, Vol 25, Issue 2
Abstract
In the pages of history are registered with the threats of the future. The seismic history of Peru shows that we live in an area of high seismic activity where the Lima city has been a protagonist on several occasions of destructive earthquakes and other natural phenomena associated such as tsunamis. In this report the reasons why an earthquake could affect the city of Lima in the future were exposed.
