The current outbreak of coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 has reached multiple countries worldwide. While the number of newly diagnosed cases and fatalities is rising quickly, far-reaching measures were enacted to prevent further spread.

One of the hallmarks of a critical course of COVID-19 is the development of severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).
