SARS-CoV-2 infection: a hurricane that does not ignore chronic hepatitis.

Patients with cirrhosis and COVID-19 had a higher fatality rate than those with COVID-19 alone (30% vs 13%, p = 0.03), while compared with those with cirrhosis alone the difference did not reach statistical significance (30 vs 20%); it should be underlined, however, that a larger group of patients with CLD and COVID-19 would have allowed for a more balanced statistical analysis.

The fatality rate was 8% in those without cirrhosis and 32% in cirrhotic patients ( p < 0.001), with an increasing trend according to the original Child–Pugh class, 19% in class A, 35% in class B and 51% in class C, the main cause of death being respiratory failure (71%) [ 18 ].
