Covid Risk Assessment

QCovid® risk calculator

QCovid® is a clinical decision tool intended to support conversations between clinically trained professionals and patients about COVID-19 risk.

QCovid was developed as a model to estimate a person’s risk of being hospitalised or dying due to catching coronavirus.

Clinicians: to use QCovid® to assess a patient, please use the NHS Digital COVID-19 Clinical Risk Assessment Tool .

Patients: for more information on how NHS staff may use QCovid® to support you, please visit https://digital.nhs.uk/coronavirus/risk-assessment/clinical-tool/informa... .

(This is an interesting 'statistical' tool. Keep in mind, there is no question in the form for vitamin D status. We already know that people with high vitamin D (i.e. > 55 ng/ml) have greater protection against Covid (and other respiratory virus'). There is no data (patients) on patients who have been hospitialized or have died from Covid who had high vitamin D status. None. All patients who died, and had their D status checked were deficient in D. Keep that in mind if you fill out the form for your edification).
