Sir, Wang and colleagues recently reported in this journal the characteristics and prognostic factors of novel coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) disease in 339 patients over 60 years of age presenting to Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University in Wuhan, China 1 . Numerous other case series of hospitalised patients in China have provided valuable insight into the clinical features of disease, risk factors for severity and case fatality rate. It is anticipated that age and the frequency of coexisting comorbidities in the UK population are likely to be strong drivers of outcome of and mortality in patients hospitalised with COVID-19 disease. We found a much higher median age and case fatality rate than that reported by other studies of all hospitalised patients with COVID-19. ./cache/cord-310001-qng7h5cj.txt ./txt/cord-310001-qng7h5cj.txt
