Abstract

Il 9 gennaio 2020, il Chinese Centre for Disease Control ha identificato un nuovo Coronavirus, SARSCoV- 2, come agente responsabile del Covid-19. In circa due mesi il virus si e diffuso in tutto il mondo e l?11 marzo l?Organizzazione Mondiale della Sanita ha dichiarato il Covid-19 pandemia. L?Italia e stato il primo Paese europeo a esserne duramente colpito. Al suo arrivo, il virus ha trovato una popolazione con eta media elevata e alta prevalenza di patologie croniche. Questo ha aumentato la letalita e gravita del Covid-19 e, a sua volta, l?emergenza sanitaria che ne e derivata rischia di peggiorare gli esiti delle malattie croniche gia esistenti. E fondamentale analizzare fin da subito gli effetti collaterali della pandemia su altre patologie, per valutarne la portata e l?impatto. Utilizzando le conoscenze che abbiamo accumulato nel tempo e acquisito in queste settimane si potranno anticipare alcuni dei bisogni sanitari futuri e limitare gli effetti indiretti negativi di Covid-19.
