As symptoms and outcomes are varied, the elderly and those who have at least one comorbidity (diabetes, cardiovascular disorders or other chronic diseases) are considered to be at high risk and are generally have lower immunity. An optimal immune system is critical for survival, as it protects the body against infectious agents.
