Many patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection have underlying chronic medical conditions.
Patient-related outcomes are worse if there are associated comorbidities.
Insulin resistance and cardiovascular disease contribute to the increased severity of COVID-19.
Management of dysglycemia, hypertension, and dyslipidemia should be targeted individually in patients with COVID-19 infection.
SARS-CoV-2 patients are vulnerable to the development of thromboembolic disease. A personalized approach to antithrombotic/thromboembolism prophylaxis is recommended.
