Death risk increases sharply after Covid-19âeven for patients who weren t hospitalized
⋮
Even non-hospitalized Covid-19 patients face a significantly higher risk of death and chronic medical conditions in the six months after their infection, according to a study published in the journal
Nature.
Washington University in St. Louis used medical records from the
Department of Veteran Affairs (VA) to compare the health outcomes of:
13,997 hospitalized influenza patients;
13,654 hospitalized Covid-19 patients up to six months after they d recovered from an acute case of Covid-19; and
Nearly 5 million people who didn t develop Covid-19 and weren t hospitalized.
The researchers assessed the symptoms that non-hospitalized Covid-19 survivors experienced between one and six months after their coronavirus infections. According to the
Former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin was convicted April 20 on three charges in the death of George Floyd.
Collectively, people across the country breathed a sigh of relief because far too often, the story has been police killing people of color with impunity, says Daniel Harawa.
“I think it’s important to remember the extraordinary circumstances that led to the guilty verdict in this case,” says Harawa, associate professor of law and director of the Washington University in St. Louis School of Law’s Appellate Clinic.
“This is what it took to achieve ‘justice’ in this case. And with any one of these factors missing, the result may well have been different.”
