a

Logistic regession model that includes all COVID tests during follow-up, stratified by (conditioned on) calendar date of the test. This analysis only includes persons who received at least one test. The cannabis status of persons who tested positive on a given day is compared to the cannabis status of persons who tested negative on the same day.

b

Model 1 is adjusted for age (21 categories: <19, 19–21, one for each year of age up to 39, 40+), race/ethnicity, neighborhood deprivation index, insurance payor, and primary KPNC facility.

c

Model 2 is adjusted for all covariables in Mode1 one plus body mass index, pre-existing diabetes and hypertension, parity, and tobacco smoking status.
