What you'll learn
Pneumonia is a complication and a typical symptom of COVID, causing 60% mortality in affected severe cases. While 70% of cases are mild or moderate, severe symptomatic patients in the worst cases can take a hit on the body’s vital functioning. It is a life-threatening disorder that impacts the lungs and can lead to permanent damage and death when not treated. Inflammation in the air sacs leads to pneumonia and causes clinical symptoms such as breathlessness, hypoxia, etc. What is more striking is that pneumonia-like complications seem to have higher precedence among men suffering from COVID-19 than women. COVID being a respiratory illness has one of the major impacts on the respiratory tract and the lungs. CT scans and a look at basic parameters are the only key indicators of worsening lung damage.
