Notes: From an article entitled, "Racial and Ethnic Differences in Presentation and Outcomes for Patients Hospitalized with COVID-19: Findings from the American Heart Association's COVID-19 Cardiovascular Disease Registry." Based on data from the first 7,868 patients by race/ethnicity hospitalized with COVID-19 in 88 hospitals across the US between 01/17/2020 and 7/22/2020. 33.0% of the patients were Hispanic, 25.5% were non-Hispanic Black, 6.3% were Asian, and 35.2% were non-Hispanic White.
