Abbreviations: LRI, lower respiratory infection; URI, upper respiratory infection.
Severity was graded using the World Health Organization scale. Mild: no pneumonia or hypoxia. Moderate: clinical signs of pneumonia, chest radiography may help in diagnosis. Severe: oxygen saturation <90% on room air or signs of severe respiratory distress (accessory muscle use, grunting.) Critical: life‐sustaining treatment for conditions such as acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), sepsis, or septic shock.
Intubation and ventilation.
Radiotherapy was omitted in one patient due to COVID‐19.
