Abstract

This study aims to assess the risk factors associated with COVID-19 patients at the General Basrah Hospital from June to October 2020. Since COVID-19 is related to acute respiratory distress syndrome, very few interstitial mononuclear inflammatory infiltrates were detected within the heart tissue samples during the research period [3]. The results of the study demonstrate that COVID-19 infections were more common in patients with cardiovascular diseases and acute respiratory. People aged >51 years showed a higher COVID-19 infection rate.


Conclusions: The study demonstrates that COVID-19 infection rates were higher in patients with cardiovascular and acute respiratory diseases. Covid 19 posed a similar risk to males and women.
