An in depth study on patients admitted to hospital and later deceased with the coronavirus (COVID-19) infection revealed that the majority of cases showed one or more comorbidities. As the chart shows, hypertension was the most common pre-existing health condition, detected in 67 percent of patients who died after contracting the virus. Type 2-diabetes, chronic renal failure, and ischemic hearth disease were also among the most common comorbidities in COVID-19 patients who lost their lives.
The virus originated in Wuhan, a Chinese city populated by millions and located in the province of Hubei. More statistics and facts about the virus in Italy are available here.
