The mean value ± standard error is presented for numerical variables (total observations in brackets). Categorical variables are presented as % positive observations (relative to total observations). Early samples were taken 1–5 days post admission while late samples 6–20 days post admission. Numbers in brackets are the numbers of patients in each category. Respiratory support definition—severe: required extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), Intubation, or Non-invasive ventilation; intermediate: required supplemental oxygen through nasal cannula; moderate: no supplemental oxygen required.
