There's currently 90 confirmed cases in Jefferson Co. and 215 in the state of Alabama. I seriously doubt that there are 60 confirmed cases at UAB and > 30 on vents. This would be disproportionate to other parts of the country in terms of percentage of pts requiring hospitalizations and those requiring ICU/vents.



Could the demographic of patients change potentially change the percentage when comparing to other parts of the country?
