Summary
COVID-19 is a respiratory disease due to a novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) that causes
substantial morbidity and mortality. To date, no treatment has been proved to be effective in
COVID-19. Elderly patients and patients with comorbidities have the worse prognosis with a
higher risk of hospitalization, ICU admission and death. The efficacy of an early outpatient
treatment could be suggested but need to be confirmed. This confirmation is mandatory to
improve prognosis of COVID-19 but also to avoid unsuspected deleterious effect of drugs
already used in clinical practice but not based on evidence.
