NCT04359303

Brief Summary

Systemic medical ozone has proved to help in several viral diseases, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and chronic inflammation process. The investigators are sure that its application to COVID-19 patients, as an adjuvant therapy, will improve the health status of these individuals.
