COVID-19 morbidity and mortality statistics

# data[].attributes.body
Statistics regarding this issue are important because they help to outline the exact number of people affected by this disease (Vavrinsky et.al., 2022). Ultimately, the issue of how to properly track and monitor disease acquisition is an important part of public knowledge and helps to determine at-risk populations (Vavrinsky et.al., 2022). Without COVID-19 tracking and information sharing, the pandemic could have spread much more widely and rapidly than we have seen in recent years. Information about proper hygiene habits and signs and symptoms of the disease were made available by multiple health organizations such as the CDC. Tracking systems were being improved at this time to help with more accurate statistics (Vavrinsky et.al., 2022).

At-risk populations could learn more about the risk factors associated with increased morbidity and mortality related to COVID-19. People with COPD, heart disease, the elderly, and minority groups are just some of the outlined populations at risk for COVID-19. (CDC.gov)

Fact sheets about COVID were made available to the public to help increase public knowledge. (CDC.gov)

The CDC offered up-to-date comprehensive data regarding the number of cases and prevalence of disease in different areas of the country. This allowed politicians to make guidelines based on real-time data. Community members and businesses were also able to use this data to determine the relative risk of COVID-19 in their specific areas in real-time. (CDC.gov)

Further research on vaccines and populations who were not adequately vaccinated was used to help guide practitioners toward an idea of which populations may be at risk or in need of further teaching. Historic data sets were used to determine age groups eligible for vaccination and relative vaccination rates. (CDC.gov)
