The Second Study

There is a second study published in JAMA on February 7, 2020, that is also on Wuhan patients. One hundred and thirty-eight patients were monitored, trying to figure out how this coronavirus spreads. These patients ranged from twenty-two to ninety-two years old. The median age was fifty-six, and each of them was admitted to Wuhan University's Zhongnan Hospital from the first of Juanray to the twenty-eight.

With this study, forty-one percent of those people who were infected caught the virus in the hospital. There were forty healthcare workers and seventeen patients that were admitted for different issues. It’s been documented that a single patient spread this disease to fourteen people at least. This was because he wasn't seen as a carrier at first. After all, the initial reason he came in was due to abdominal pain. Ten percent didn’t have common symptoms. This means they didn't have a fever or cough, but their symptoms were diarrhea and nausea.

Abdominal pain, dizziness, and headaches were other symptoms that were less frequently reported. Those that were admitted with less severe symptoms had a significant increase in symptoms between five to seven days later. From this study, you can see that day one through four most people only experience mild symptoms. Day five and six you'll notice shortness of breath, and on day seven hospitalization is required. Day eight can cause severe difficulty in breathing, which is why hospitalization is severely important on day seven. Out of the initial one hundred and thirty-eight people in the study, twenty-six percent ended up in the ICU (intensive care unit).

The median age of patients who ended up in the IC was sixty-six. Those who didn’t need intensive care had a median age of fifty-one. The gender ratio is fifty-four percent male and forty-six percent of women. With this study, only 4.3% died. This study helped doctors to discover that this virus is accompanied by systematic viral infection as well as pneumonia, which causes a strong inflammatory response. This can affect the heart, liver, kidneys, lungs and blood-clotting systems. Serious viral infections, which include the flu, can cause a larger inflammatory response, which can stick around thirty days after the signs of illness have already gone away. during this period, older people are at more of a risk fo heart attack as well as stroke.
