* To the total number of hospitalized COVID-19 patients. ** Based on available data, 
we considered patients with death outcome, as well as those admitted to ICU or 
under mechanical ventilation as more severe cases. The information in this chart is 
based on hospitalized cases, and outpatients are not included in this calculation. 
Inclusion of outpatients and asymptomatic cases would decrease the proportion of 
severe cases. § To increase the sample size, analysis of death cases is done on the 
data in the last week.
