Akanksha Prakash

Covid-19 was announced a pandemic by the World Health Organization on 12 March 2020. Around one of every five individuals with covid-19 requires hospitalization [1]. An observational investigation of 20133 individuals with covid-19 requiring hospitalization in the UK found that 26% passed on, 41% were released alive, while 34% remained inpatients at the hour of reporting [2]. The case casualty rate shifts around the world, with the danger of death higher among individuals who are more seasoned, male, multimorbid, of dark, Asian, and minority ethnicity, and from zones of higher deprivation.
