We concur with Marone and Rinaldi that further attention to the problem of DVT in SARS CoV-2 2 patients is needed. Preliminary recommendations exist regarding the use of heparin derivatives 3 and other drugs with hemostatic effects in the management of these patients 10 . There is also 4 evidence that fish oil may reduce thrombotic events. We believe that now is an appropriate time 5

to conduct studies on the potential role of fish oil ILE as an adjunct to other therapies in adult 6 patients admitted with SARS CoV-2 at risk for vascular thrombotic events. 7 8
