Abstract
Italy was the first European country to be affected by the Covid-19 epidemic, with the outbreak estimated to have started in late February, 2020. Currently, Italy has reported more than 228000 Covid-19-positive cases, 14326 of which in the province of Brescia, Lombardy. Although emerging studies have shown a profound hypercoagulable state in Covid-19, it is still highly debated if Covid-19 increases the risk of cerebrovascular disorders. Some reports have shown high frequency of stroke in patients with Covid-191-3 while collaterally there was a decrease of approximately 39% of patients evaluated for stroke in U.S. hospitals,4 possibly due to the fear of seeking care in the midst of the pandemic.
