CRP and COVID-19: The most striking conclusions drawn by this study are (i) up to 35% of the COVID-19 patients hospitalized in a medical ward were transferred to ICU or died at day 14, (ii) we defined high-risk group of ICU transfer or death using a simplified scoring system from the multivariable models including age, CRP level, lymphocytes count and WHO scale and (iii) we highlighted correlation between IL-6 level and extensive lesions in CT scan.
