“…Age and sex were the common demographic risk factors. Of the 20 studies on age and COVID-19 mortality, 16 identified increasing age as a significant determinant of COVID-19 mortality, with effect sizes ranging from 1.04 to 20.6 and 95% CI from 1.01 to 22.68 (9, 10, 11, 16, 17, 18, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 32, 33, 35). Also, 8 of the 20 studies on gender/sex and COVID-19 found men to have a higher risk of COVID-19 mortality than women (10, 11, 16, 17, 24, 26, 28, 32).…”
