The COVID Inpatient Risk Calculator (CIRC) uses factors on admission to the hospital to predict the likelihood that a patient admitted with COVID-19 will progress to severe disease* or death within 7 days of arrival. This model was derived from the first 832 patients admitted to the Johns Hopkins Health System between March 1, 2020 and April 24, 2020, with follow-up through June 24, 2020 (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32960645/).

*severe disease - requiring any of the following: high flow nasal cannula, non-invasive positive pressure ventilation, invasive mechanical ventilation, ECMO, vasopressor support
