Willow Knife: Nearly 350 million people worldwide are at high risk of new coronary cases, with men at higher risk than women.

Introduction: In terms of age, less than 5% of the population under the age of 20 suffer from at least one such underlying diseaseknown, older people and people with potential health problems are at higher risk of contracting new coronary pneumoniaA comprehensive understanding of the number of people at increased risk of new coronary pneumonia in each country and their discrepancies can help to develop possible strategies to prioritize protection or vaccination of high-risk groupsAn estimated 350 million people worldwide are at high risk of new coronary cases, meaning they may need hospital admission if they become infected with the new coronavirus, according to an international team led by the School of Health and Tropical Medicine at the University of London,, published in The Lancet Global HealthUsing prevalence data from the global disease and health burden, theteam estimated the number of people at increased risk of serious disease by age (5 age group), gender and country, as well as the Risk Factor Study 2017 (GBD) and the United Nations Population Estimates for 2020potential conditions associated with new crown pneumonia are determined by mapping the conditions listed in 2017GBD to those listed in the guidelines issued by WHO and public health agencies in the United Kingdom and the United StatesThe team analyzed data from two large multi-incidence studies to determine the appropriate adjustment factors for clustering and multiple incidencesto help explain the risk level of high-risk populations, they also used the hospitalization rate of new coronary pneumonia at a specific age in Chinese mainland to estimate the number of high-risk populations (defined as those requiring hospitalization if infected) and adjusted to reflect differences in the prevalence of underlying diseases and weakness in specific countriesIn addition,researchers calculated the number of individuals without potential diseases who may be considered at higher risk due to age (50 to 70 years of age)results show that about 1.7 billion people worldwide suffer from at least one underlying disease, such as chronic kidney disease, diabetes and cardiovascular disease, which may increase their risk of developing severe illness after contracting the new coronavirusIn terms of age, less than 5 per cent of the population under the age of 20 have at least one such underlying disease, compared with more than 66 per cent of the population aged 70 and overresearchers say not all people with such underlying diseases develop severe illness after contracting the new coronavirus, but an estimated 349 million people worldwide are at high risk of developing severe cases after contracting the new coronavirusThe analysis also showed that the proportion of people at high erythema risk of severe illness was higher, and men had a higher risk of developing severe illness after infection than womenDr Andrew Clark, a study and a scholar at the University of London's School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, said he hopes the results will help policymakers develop effective measures to protect people at higher risk of new coronary disease, such as giving priority to vaccination the researchers stress that the risk factors considered in the relevant estimates are mainly underlying diseases, and that other risk factors, such as the socio-economic status of a particular population, are not considered, so the estimates are uncertain References: .
