Researchers want to understand whether a person's nutritional health — measured through blood tests, body measurements, and vitamin levels — affects how well COVID-19 patients recover. This study will collect information from patients with confirmed COVID-19 infections and track their hospital stay until they either go home or pass away. By analyzing these patterns, the team hopes to identify which nutritional factors are most important for survival and recovery.
COVID-19 outcomes vary widely among patients, and doctors want to know if poor nutrition plays a role in worse outcomes. Understanding this connection could help doctors identify at-risk patients earlier and possibly improve treatment strategies through better nutritional support.

As a participant, your doctors will gather information about your age, weight, height, and medical history. They will collect results from routine blood tests (checking your vitamin D, blood counts, liver and kidney function, and inflammation markers) and imaging scans like CT or MRI if they were already done as part of your care. Researchers will follow your progress in the hospital until you are discharged or the study ends, but you won't need to do anything extra beyond your regular medical care.
