About 40% of adults in the U.S. have one of five underlying medical situations that lead to a contraction of severe Covid-19 symptoms, with the highest prevalence in southern states that recently experience a buildup in daily cases, according to a Center for Disease Prevention and Control Study published Thursday.
People with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, central disease, diabetes, chronic kidney disease and obesity delight in more headaches from the virus, and the CDC notes that hospitalizations were six times higher, ICU hospitalizations were five times higher, and deaths were 12 times higher than for others without those conditions.
About 40.7% of other people over the age of 18 suffer from at least one of the conditions, maximum obesity, according to a 2018 phone survey of 437,500 adults in all U.S. counties.
The company noted that while densely populated metropolitan areas had more people with underlying physical condition problems, ownership of one of the medical situations is not unusual in rural areas.
Counties with the prevalence of all diseases were concentrated in the southeastern states, namely Alabama, Arkansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Tennessee, and West Virginia, as well as in some counties in Oklahoma, South Dakota, Texas, and northern Michigan, among others. The test reads.
Southern and Western states in particular have experienced rising numbers of infections since the start of summer, following the first few months of the pandemic where outbreaks took place in high-density places like New York and New Jersey.
Previous federal studies have shown how the virus disproportionately affects racial and ethnic minorities, who are more likely to experience headaches due to underlying physical disorders as a result of ancient inequalities, such as physical care.
With the cumulative record in the number of cases, the number of deaths accumulates. While more young people are contracting the disease in places like New York, and are less likely to face fatal symptoms, the number of cases led to the highest number of deaths on Wednesday since May with 1,126 deaths. In total, the United States leads all other countries in cases shown with 3,998,259 and reported deaths with 143,701.
Health Mavens proposed the use of a mask to mitigate the spread of the virus, Dr. Robert Redfield, director of the CDC, said in an interview on July 14 that with universal use, “I think in the next four, six or eight weeks we could just control this epidemic.” However, face covers have become a partisan problem. In Kentucky, he singled out the CDC exam as a state with a high occurrence of fitness situations leading to severe Covid-19 cases, a circuit approval trial on blocked executive orders from Kentucky Democratic Gov. Andy Beshear imposing the face mask. After Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms issued an order requiring citizens to cover their faces when they were in public, Georgia Republican Gov. Brian Kemp sued her.
