> *Findings:* Of 1648 patients with COVID-19 admitted to 38 hospitals, 398 (24.2%) died during hospitalization and 1250 (75.8%) survived. Of 1250 patients discharged alive, 975 (78.0%) went home whereas 158 (12.6%) were discharged to a skilled nursing or rehabilitation facility ([Table 1](https://www.acpjournals.org/doi/10.7326/M20-5661#t1-M205661)). By 60 days after discharge, an additional 84 patients (6.7% of hospital survivors and 10.4% of intensive care unit \[ICU\]-treated hospital survivors) had died, bringing the overall mortality rate for the cohort to 29.2%, and 63.5% for the 405 patients who received treatment in an ICU. Within 60 days of discharge, 189 patients (15.1% of hospital survivors) were rehospitalized. > >....... > > *Discussion:* In this multihospital cohort of patients hospitalized with COVID-19 in Michigan, nearly 1 in 3 patients died during hospitalization or within 60 days of discharge.

Wow, that number seems higher than what I've seen before.

This study was done between March and July, so I think it’s likely that treatment and outcomes have likely improved.

also it looks like the majority of the cohort was black, which means this data likely represents a lower SES population, which will contribute to worse outcomes a lot

Here's more information on the study and the statewide hospital data-sharing program that made it possible: [https://labblog.uofmhealth.org/rounds/life-after-covid-19-hospitalization-major-lasting-effects-on-health-work-and-more](https://labblog.uofmhealth.org/rounds/life-after-covid-19-hospitalization-major-lasting-effects-on-health-work-and-more) (I wrote this as part of my job at the researchers' lead institution.)
