The p values were calculated by the Mann-Whitney U test, chi-square test, or Fisher exact test, as appropriate.
The values are given as the number of patients, with the percentage in parentheses.
The values are given as the mean and the standard deviation.
A risk area was defined as a hospital catchment area with >100 COVID-19 cases per 100,000 inhabitants.
Some data were missing for this category, so the values are given as the number of patients with available data.
The follow-up was from the day of presentation until death or the end of the study period.
