SARS-CoV-2 status on day 3 versus baseline health and medication status. (A) Baseline health scores. Baseline health scores were calculated by using the sum of the number of preexisting comorbidities + the number of baseline COVID–19-related 5 symptoms + number of COVID-19 morbidities. (B) The number of any existing home medications that patients were taking. Open symbols represent outpatients and closed symbols represent inpatients. Statistics were performed using Prism 9 for Mac OS (GraphPad Software, San Diego, California). Nonparametric Mann-Whitney P values were reported.
