One in three hospital patients with Covid-19 need readmission, finds study

Experts, led by researchers from the University of Leicester, examined whether people needed to be readmitted, death rates and diagnoses of respiratory, cardiovascular, metabolic, kidney and liver diseases.

Nearly a third of Covid-19 hospital patients need to be readmitted within a month of being sent home, a study suggests.

More than one in 10 died after they had been discharged.
