From 2020/04/11:
Factors associated with hospitalization and critical illness among 4,103 patients with COVID-19 disease in New York City
-see https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.04.08.20057794v1
Strongest hospitalization risks were:
1) Age > 75 years (OR 66.8, 95% CI, 44.7-102.6)
2) Age 65-74 (OR 10.9, 95% CI, 8.35-14.34)
3) BMI > 40 (OR 6.2, 95% CI, 4.2-9.3)
4) Heart failure (OR 4.3 95% CI, 1.9-11.2)
Ok, so why are these demographic factors any different than people hospitalized in Dallas, Tx there the death rate is 1/3?
