Overview

Epidemiology and Demorgraphics

Incidence

  • Due to the lack of data at this point, the exact incidence rate of COVID-19 can not be approximated.

Prevalence

Case-fatality rate

  • The case fatality-rate of COVID-19 in the first 99 patients at a Wuhan hospital (the epicenter of the outbreak) was found to be 11%.[2]
  • In a different study comprising of 138 patients infected with COVID-19, the mortality has been established to be 4.3%.[3]
  • Due to inconsistent reporting and lack of organized data, an exact and universal case-fatality rate of COVID-19 is yet to be established.
  • In Wuhan, the case-fatality was 5.8% and in the rest of China it was 0.7%.[4]

Age

  • COVID-19 can affect individuals of any age.
  • Middle aged and elderly population seem to be the most commonly affected.
  • In multiple cohorts of patients hospitalized with confirmed COVID-19, the median age is established to range from 49 to 56 years.[5][6][7]
  • In a report including approximately 44,500 cases, 87% of the patients were between the ages of 30 and 79 years.[8]
  • According to the same report mentioned above, 2% of the patients were younger than the age of 20 years.

Race

  • At this point, there seems to be no racial predilection to COVID-19.

Gender

  • COVID-19 is affecting males more than females.[9][10]

Region

  • Majority of the cases of COVID-19 have been reported in China and at this point the disease has spread to all the continents of the world.
  • In the United States, confirmed cases of COVID-19 have been reported from 47 States (Alabama, Idaho, and West Virginia have no reported cases so far).[11]
