关于冠状病毒病(COVID19)严重程度(传播性、疾病严重性、影响)的信息对医疗保健部门的准备工作至关重要。我们提出了一种简单的方法来评估疾病的严重性，创建了来自哨兵医院的肺炎患者的参考队列。首先，对比显示，新冠肺炎患者需要呼吸机的比率更高。没有合并症的新冠肺炎患者中的死亡病例比参考队列中的更多。医院应该为通风和重症监护资源的高利用率做好准备。
Information on severity of coronavirus disease (COVID19) (transmissibility, disease seriousness, impact) is crucial for preparation of healthcare sectors. We present a simple approach to assess disease seriousness, creating a reference cohort of pneumonia patients from sentinel hospitals. First comparisons exposed a higher rate of COVID-19 patients requiring ventilation. There were more case fatalities among COVID-19 patients without comorbidities than in the reference cohort. Hospitals should prepare for high utilisation of ventilation and intensive care resources.
