Abstract

The following information is based on both our own experience and, most importantly, the data of the European Associations of Otorhinolaryngologists and leading experts from different countries, who report on their personal experience of treating patients in a pandemic COVID-19.

Due to the fact that the situation itself, as well as information about the Corona Virus infection, is changing very dynamically it is important to share verified professional information.
