COVID-19 infection in a resource-limited setting: Predictors of severity and mortality

Abstract
Background: Following the declaration of COVID-19 infection as a pandemic by the World Health Organisation (WHO), researchers have been working to identify diagnostic and prognostic markers while considering the accuracy and cost-effectiveness of the selected method. This study aimed to identify common COVID-19 infection clinical severity and outcome predictors in a resource-constrained setting. M...
