Project: Risk calculator developed to show how underlying health conditions can affect mortality rates in COVID-19 pandemic Case Study.
Researchers at University College London, University College London NHS Trust, the University of Cambridge and Health Data Research UK have collaborated
Their health data study has revealed that having an underlying health condition, such as heart disease or diabetes, increases a person’s risk of death fivefold over the next year. The team have developed a prototype online ‘risk calculator’ to show how age, sex and underlying health conditions can affect mortality rates.
