Abstract

The 2019 novel the Corona Virus Disease 2019, known as COVID-19, has sickened more than 1 million people and killed nearly 600,000 in Wuhan, China. The binding of Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 receptor binding causesSARS-CoV-2 to affect various organs. There is growing evidence linking severe COVID-19 to overweight, obesity and malnutrition (abnormal BMI). The aim of the study was to investigate the relationship between abnormal BMI and COVID-19 and determine the causes of negative outcomes.
