Every year, approximatively 1,200 LTs are performed in Italy (2). The majority of these are concentrated within four northern regions (Lombardia, Veneto, Piemonte, Emilia-Romagna, LoVePiER), accounting about more than the half of the overall LT performed per year (749/1,277 LT, 58.6%, in 2019). Nowadays, LoVePiER was the most involved areas by the Covid-19-outbreak, with a total of 75,738 (71.5%) documented cases until March 31st and 10,174 (81.8%) deaths (Supplementary Material-2) (1).
