One of the principal precepts of bioethics that all students in healthcare are taught in school which is a fundamental principle throughout of medicine, is referred as the Latin phrase “primum non nocere”. This means that, in regard to therapeutic strategies, it is first of all necessary not to harm the patient and for this reason, among the possible treatments, the one that has fewer contraindications should always be privileged. The current COVID-19 pandemic today counts more than 46 million cases and more than 1 million deaths worldwide. While the vast majority of the scientific community is working tirelessly on the development of vaccines and control of the application of the results produced by the use of drugs in hospitalized patients, few studies have dealt with issues related to the concepts of prophylaxis and treatment of the early phase of the disease.Prophylaxis includes strategies capable, on the one hand, of containing the spread of SARS-CoV-2, on the other hand, mitigating the development of the immune system imbalance caused in severe forms of Coronavirus disease. That is why we present the MATH + clinical guidelines, which were created thanks to an international alliance of doctors from around the world and a description of the clinical case when the MATH + clinical guidelines were used.Medicine is a direction of human activity, which in its charity knows no boundaries, age restrictions, emotions and prohibitions. The doctor everywhere rushes to the rescue neglecting personal. That is why we strive to help all health workers, who are at the Front Line in the fight for the lives of COVID-19 critical patients.
