Abstract
Between March 2, 2020, and August 31, 2021, 2,498 COVID-19 patients have been admitted to Seobuk Metropolitan Hospital, of which 2,285 have been discharged. 23 were transferred to a life treatment center or other hospital due to constraints on the hospital beds or for family together admission. 190 patients, almost 7.6% of the total number, needed to be transferred to a university hospital because of the severe progression of their pneumonia. The Korean quarantine system hospitalizes COVID-19 patients in the early stages of the (COVID-19) disease. We believe that it is due to this system that Korea has been able to keep a considerably low death rate compared to many other countries. In this paper we examine the results of the chest CT scans of all 1,523 corona patients hospitalized from March 2, 2020, to May 25, 2021. We charted the data of the 1,523 patients to look into comorbidities. We used a systemic classification to analyze the data of the existing comorbidities of inpatients and their diseases diagnosed at the time of hospitalization.
