Study reveals extent of CV and death risk with COVID-19
Adults who require hospital admission for COVID-19 have a markedly increased risk of cardiovascular events and death than those who recuperate in the community or are not infected, a large database study shows.
UK researchers have found in a prospective study that infection with COVID-19 is tied to a 118-fold greater risk of dying among hospitalised cases compared with a 10-fold increased risk for non-hospitalised patients.
