Over the last couple of months physicians world wide are struggling to prevent the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) spread all over the world. It has become obvious that our health care systems should under go modifications in order to successfully confront similar pandemics, since this is considered the ''century of pandemics'', due to the high incidence of new virus attacks with expressly high virulence (Hong Kong flu in 1968, AIDS, SARS in 2002, H1N1 pandemic in 2009, MERS in 2012 and COVID-19 in 2020) (1).
在过去的几个月里，全世界的医生都在努力阻止新型冠状病毒（COVID-19）在全球范围内传播。很明显，我们的医疗保健系统应该进行修改，以便能够成功应对类似的大流行，因为这被认为是“大流行的世纪”，由于新病毒的高发病率和明显的高毒性（1968 年的香港流感、艾滋病、2002 年的 SARS、2009 年的 H1N1 大流行、2012 年的 MERS 和 2020 年的 COVID-19）（1）。
