Note: 1 Age: the mean age of 56 mild patients and 16 severe patients.

2 Coexisting conditions (%): The percentage of coexisting diseases in mild and severe cases. Coexisting conditions were recorded in 49 mild patients and 16 severe patients.

3 Current smoker (%): The percentage of smokers in 49 mild patients and 16 severe patients.

4 Positive culture on the same day plasma: The percentage of fungi and bacteria detected in plasma of mild and severe patients.

5 P value: The incidence of clinical disease, which was different between mild and severe patients, was examined by Fisher's exact test.
