Other uncommon symptoms included headache, dizziness and abdominal pain. 26% of patients required intensive care, mortality rate was 4.3%, and hospital-related-transmission is suspected in 41% of the patients. Some moderately ill patients took a turn for the worse a week into their illness. Reported median time when patients become short of breath 5 days, hospitalization 7 days, severe breathing problems, 8 days. Older patients and patients with chronic conditions, diabetes, heart disease or cancer tended to become more severely ill than younger, healthier patients.
