Elevated mortality among people experiencing homelessness with COVID-19

Abstract

AbstractWe reviewed publicly available data from major U.S. health jurisdictions to compare case fatality rates in people experiencing homelessness (PEH) to the general population. Case fatality among PEH was 1.3 times (95% CI 1.1, 1.5) that of the general population, suggesting that PEH should be prioritized for vaccination.
