a nonsignificant trendP = 0.152
A nonsignificant trend for lesser use of mechanical ventilation (26.5% vs. 22.1%, P = 0.152) and vasopressor support (20.5% vs. 15.9%, P = 0.304) was observed during the second wave but mortality at 60 days from admission (24.5%) was in the range of what was previously reported, 31 , 32 with no significant difference between the first and second wave ( Figure 4 a; Log rank test, P = 0.48).
