摘要

埃及医生中COVID-19死亡的风险尚未得到估计。本报告利用埃及卫生和人口部(MoHP)、埃及公共动员和统计中央机构(CAPMAS)和埃及医疗联合会的数据，旨在粗略估计这一风险。我们发现，截至2021年4月28日，医生的死亡占埃及COVID-19死亡率的3.7%，与年龄中位数以上(>24.5岁)的普通人群相比，医生死于COVID-19的可能性几乎高19倍。尽管如此，这一贡献可能被高估了，因为卫生部可能没有报告普通人群中大量的COVID-19死亡病例。

Estimation of the risk of COVID-19 mortality among physicians in Egypt.

The risk of COVID-19 mortality among physicians in Egypt has not been estimated yet. Using data from the Egyptian Ministry of Health and Population (MoHP), the Central Agency for Public Mobilization And Statistics (CAPMAS) in Egypt, and the Egyptian Medical Syndicate, this report aimed to roughly estimate this risk. We found that, up to April 28th, 2021, the deaths of physicians contributed to 3.7% of COVID-19 mortality in Egypt, and physicians were almost 19 times more likely to die of COVID-19 compared with the general population above the median age (>24.5 years). Still, this contribution could be overestimated because the MoHP might have failed to report a significant number of COVID-19 deaths among the general population.

期刊介绍： Archives of Environmental & Occupational Health , originally founded in 1919 as the Journal of Industrial Hygiene, and perhaps most well-known as the Archives of Environmental Health, reports, integrates, and consolidates the latest research, both nationally and internationally, from fields germane to environmental health, including epidemiology, toxicology, exposure assessment, modeling and biostatistics, risk science and biochemistry. Publishing new research based on the most rigorous methods and discussion to put this work in perspective for public health, public policy, and sustainability, the Archives addresses such topics of current concern as health significance of chemical exposure, toxic waste, new and old energy technologies, industrial processes, and the environmental causation of disease such as neurotoxicity, birth defects, cancer, and chronic degenerative diseases. For more than 90 years, this noted journal has provided objective documentation of the effects of environmental agents on human and, in some cases, animal populations and information of practical importance on which decisions are based.
