Clinical risk factors for mortality in an analysis of 1375 patients admitted for COVID treatment

Abstract The goal of the present work was to examine clinical risk factors for mortality in 1375 COVID + patients admitted to a hospital in Suffolk County, NY. Data were collated by the hospital epidemiological service for patients admitted from 3/7/2020 to 9/1/2020. Time until final discharge or de...
