SARS-CoV-2 is the ninth known coronavirus that infects people and the seventh discovered
in the previous 20 years. Coronaviruses have long been suspected of posing a significant
pandemic danger. COVID-19 reveals a wide range of clinical manifestations, severity levels,
and mortality rates. Although the deadly impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic can be seen in
people of all ages, the most severe health implications and deaths from COVID-19 are
connected with older adults, particularly older males. We aim to find the correlation between
different demographics such as gender, age, area, symptoms, and comorbidities. We have
tested and analyzed over eight months of 2309 covid suspected patients, and among them,
24.0% were positive, and the majority of these positive patients were male. We have also
found that people over 70 years are prone to be more affected. These positive patients have a
fever, body aches, headache, loss of taste and smell, etc. Our results support the current
findings on Covid-19 and show some areas for future research.
