INTRODUCTION Infections by SARS-CoV-2, a novel coronavirus that emerged in China in late 2019 [1], and the disease that it causes, COVID-19, became a global pandemic on March 11 th , 2020 [2]. By July19 th , 2020, COVID-19 had infected 14,348,475 people and caused 603,167 deaths worldwide [3].
Abbreviations ARBs: angiotensin II receptor blockers; ACE: angiotensin-converting-enzyme; CI: confidence interval; COVID-19: Coronavirus disease 19; CV: cardiovascular; NSAIDs: non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs; SERMs: selective estrogen receptor modulators; SSRIs: serotonin reuptake inhibitors.
