Centers for Disease Control and Prevention report that confirms what has long been suspected.<\/p>\n<p>The CDC\u2019s Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report, released Monday, offers a comprehensive look at the demographics of COVID-19 patients, though the findings were not exactly surprising.<\/p>\n<p>Between January 22 and May 30, the US saw 1,761,503 cases of the coronavirus and 103,700 deaths, with the CDC examining 1,320,488 laboratory-confirmed cases.<\/p>\n<p>It found coronavirus patients with underlying conditions were six times more likely to be hospitalized and 12 times more likely to die.<\/p>\n<p>The most common underlying conditions were cardiovascular disease (32 percent), diabetes (30 percent) and chronic lung disease (18 percent).<\/p>\n<p>The incidence rate was highest among people aged 80 or older and lowest among kids aged 9 or younger.<\/p>\n<p>Of the 45 percent of US cases that had racial data,\u00a033 percent of patients were Hispanic and 22 percent were black, the report found.<\/p>\n<div>\n<div id=\"slideshow-15846807-1\">\n<div>\n<div>\n                <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Virus Outbreak New York\"
