Abstract

We estimated that 45.4% of US adults are at increased risk for complications from coronavirus disease because of cardiovascular disease, diabetes, respiratory disease, hypertension, or cancer. Rates increased by age, from 19.8% for persons 18-29 years of age to 80.7% for persons >80 years of age, and varied by state, race/ethnicity, health insurance status, and employment.

Keywords: COVID-19; SARS-CoV-2; United States; chronic conditions; complications; coronavirus disease; infection; population-based estimates; respiratory infections; risk factors; severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2; viruses; zoonoses.
