Once consent was signed, compliance with all the eligibility criteria verified, and inclusion of the subject decided, the investigator assigns corresponding treatment according to the randomization carried out. It includes volunteers for both cohorts, provided they have test negative for COVID 19 in swabs obtained immediately before inclusion.
