There are 1,635 coronavirus victims in the United States in the past 24 hours. The total pandemic toll thus exceeds 77,000 deaths, according to data provided by Johns Hopkins University. The US currently records over 1.28 million officially diagnosed cases (+29,079 compared to the last 24 hours). Hospital use of anticoagulants in severe patients with SARS-Cov-2 increases in America. Faced with the continuous emergence of data that binds coronavirus to cardiovascular damage, even lethal, the prestigious Mount Sinai hospital in New York has just introduced new guidelines, which provide for standard treatment with anticoagulant drugs for patients. It is in fact a brand new study conducted at Mount Sinai on 2,700 patients hospitalized with SARS-Cov-2, to have shown a clear decrease in mortality among the most serious patients, under artificial respirator, on whom anticoagulant drugs had been used: the 63% of these have indeed survived. Against 29% of patients in the same condition, who had not, however, received anticoagulants. No difference in terms of mortality - among those taking less anticoagulants - was instead observed among serious patients, but who were not forced to use artificial respirators. The authors of the research published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology note that the data are significant, but need to be confirmed by larger studies. There are 751 Covid-19 deaths registered in Brazil today, the highest figure since the start of the pandemic. This was revealed by the Ministry of Health, specifying that the total number of victims is 9,897. There are 10,222 new infections, for a total of 145,328. The President of Argentina Alberto Fernandez has announced that the quarantine in force throughout the country due to the coronavirus pandemic will remain in force until May 24 and will remain particularly tight in the capital, Buenos Aires, and in its province.
