Paper prepared by academics on the factors associated with COVID-19 related hospital death in the linked electronic health records of 17 million adult NHS patients. It was considered at SAGE 29 on 28 April 2020.

This paper is available as a pre-print from: www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.05.06.20092999v1.

It should be viewed in context: the paper was the best assessment of the evidence at the time of writing. The picture is developing rapidly and, as new evidence or data emerges, SAGE updates its advice accordingly.

Therefore, some of the information in this paper may have been superseded and the author’s opinion or conclusion may since have developed.
