海报摘要

Our aim is to describe the cases of COVID-19 during the first four months of the epidemic at a public secondary hospital. Retrospective descriptive study. 1828 confirmed cases were attended, 64,4% were hospitalized. 5,6% were admitted to ICU. 51,6% of all confirmed cases were male. The median age was 64,4 years. The most affected age groups in our study corresponded to older ages, 70-79 in male and over 80-year-old women. 15,1% were nursing home residents. 18,3% of all confirmed cases were of Latin American origin of which 7,2% were admitted to the ICU. Overall case fatality was 14,7%. Significant differences were observed among PCR positive testing cases and clinically diagnosed cases where PCR positive had different basal characteristics and needed more ICU admission (6,7% vs 3,4%). We observed a biphasic epidemiological curve, the peak occurred between March 20 and March 23 whereas hospital and ICU admissions remained stable
