Closed jphfisher closed 4 years ago

Hi,

I'm a paediatrician working in the UK. We need data on the pre-existing medical conditions of children who catch COVID, so that we can start looking for patterns.

When you're collecting your data, please please include individual patient data on people with co-morbidities, especially children but I figure it would be useful for adults too! We'd need their ages as well ;)

I'm happy to be contacted on the email in my profile, and then we can move over to my official NHS account if needs be.

All the best

Dr Jonathan Fisher NIHR Clinical Lecturer in Paediatrics UCL-GOS Institute of Child Health

@vukosim would it be possible to liase with NICD to request that this be part of their patient intake questionnaire?
