Asthma Is Associated with Increased Risk of Intubation but Not Hospitalization or Death in COVID-19	2020-10-12		.txt	text/plain	696	60	56	title: Asthma Is Associated with Increased Risk of Intubation but Not Hospitalization or Death in COVID-19 While studies from China suggested that 3 asthma was not a risk factor for severe COVID-19, other studies have shown higher rates of asthma 4 among hospitalized patients 1, 2 . Therefore, the primary aim of this study was to assess the associations 5 between asthma and hospitalization, intensive care unit (ICU) admission, or death among patients with 6 COVID-19. . We were unable to 53 evaluate the association between biologic medications for asthma and COVID-19 outcomes, as only one 54 patient with asthma was receiving a biologic (omalizumab) and did not require hospitalization. 55 56 This study assessed whether asthma was associated with COVID-19 severity with regards to outcomes 57 and laboratory biomarkers. In conclusion, there was no association between asthma and risk of hospitalization, ICU admission, or 81 death among patients with COVID-19.	./cache/cord-332218-4bumy47f.txt	./txt/cord-332218-4bumy47f.txt
