Coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19) is a new pandemic that has affected more than 80 million people. COVID-19 is caused by a new coronavirus strain, acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2). COVID-19 may range from asymptomatic to severe acute respiratory syndrome and coagulative disorder, causing the death of up to 3% of patients (1). However, significant differences exist between countries concerning the incidence, spread, severity, and mortality rates (2).
