The researchers asked healthcare providers to keep these parameters in mind while dealing with Covid-19 patients. The findings of the study are in line with the previous studies that said men are more susceptible to Covid-19 and people with co-morbidities, including diabetes and hypertension, are at a greater risk of dying from the virus. The study stated that around 19 per cent of hospitalized Covid-19 patients died from the infection with the lowest mortality among paediatric patients, which was less than 2 per cent.

Mortality rates increased with each decade of life, with the highest mortality, 34 per cent, among those aged 80 and older. "Older patients still have the highest risk of dying, but younger patients with obesity or hypertension have the highest risk of dying relative to other patients their age without these conditions," said study lead author Katherine E Goodman.
