    Document: In early December 2019, an outbreak caused by a novel betacoronavirus was reported in Wuhan, the capital city of the Hubei Chinese province [3, 16] . It rapidly spread to other provinces in China and to the rest of the world. On March 17 2020, the World Health Organisation (WHO) officially declared COVID-19 a pandemic. This RNA virus is now known as SARS-CoV-2 [21] and it is reported to cause lower respiratory tract infections in humans with a variety of unspecific symptoms [3, 10, 26] . The virulence of the infection is relatively high with a case fatality ratio estimated to be in the order of 1% [5, 6, 23, 25] , therefore making the virus a public health priority issue given the anticipated size of the epidemics due to the absence of pre-existing immunity.
