Suspected COVID-19 in primary care: how GP records contribute to understanding differences in prevalence by ethnicity. 2020-05-26 .txt text/plain 3094 194 57 Design and Setting Cross-sectional study using anonymised data from the primary care records of 1.3 million people registered with 157 practices in four adjacent east London clinical commissioning groups (CCGs). In a fully adjusted analysis, including clinical factors, the odds were: South Asian OR 1.93 (95% CI = 1.83 to 2.04) Black OR 1.47 (95% CI 1.38 to 1.57) Conclusions Using data in GP records Black and south Asian ethnicity remain as predictors of community cases of COVID-19, with levels of risk similar to hospital admission cases. The effect of ethnicity on the likelihood of suspected COVID-19 presentation was examined, adjusting for differences in demographic and clinical factors including long term conditions and BMI. Using patient level data from the GP record this study documents the numbers of suspected COVID-19 cases presenting to practices through the peak of the London epidemic ( Figure 2 ). ./cache/cord-342974-g6ltr6am.txt ./txt/cord-342974-g6ltr6am.txt
