"The relationship of psychiatric disorders with death in Covid-19 patients" was investigated in America. The response of nearly 7,500 patients to treatment for 45 days was examined and mortality rates were evaluated. Of eligible patients with positive test results, 75 had a history of 1.0 percent schizophrenia spectrum disease, 564 had a history of 7.7 percent mood disorder, and 360 had a history of 4.9 percent anxiety disorder. Those diagnosed with schizophrenia spectrum disorder were associated with the risk of death, while those with mood and anxiety disorders were not associated with the risk of death. The study revealed that the probability of death from Covid-19 is 2.7 times higher in patients with schizophrenia.
