摘要
We reviewed publicly available data from major US health jurisdictions to compare severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 case fatality rates in people experiencing homelessness with the general population. The case fatality rate among people experiencing homelessness was 1.3 times ( 95% CI, 1.1-1.5) that of the general population, suggesting that people experiencing homelessness should be prioritized for vaccination.
