The Federal Justification forced the Otamendi Sanatorium of the City of Buenos Aires to supply chlorine dioxide, prohibited in Argentina, to a hospitalized patient in serious condition with coronavirus, through a precautionary measure. 

Despite the fact that the Argentine Society of Infectious Diseases and the National Administration of Medicines, Food and Medical Technology (ANMAT) have rejected

chlorine dioxide

due to its dangerousness, the surrogate federal judge Javier Pico Terrero, of the Federal Civil and Commercial Court No. 7 , made room for the request of the family of the patient Jorge García Rúa to provide intravenous chlorine dioxide and sodium ibuprofenate in nebulizations. 

"The coverage of the indicated treatments would not cause a serious damage to the defendant, but it avoids, on the other hand, the aggravation of the living conditions of the plaintiff," says the court ruling.

In this sense, it adds: "In the light of the accompanying documentation, there is no impossibility of a medical order for the implementation of the prescribed treatments and appropriate to the present case, which is also urgently required as it can improve the diagnosis and the consequent treatment to be adopted imminently or, where appropriate, save the life of the patient ".
