Biochemical abnormalities in COVID-19: a comparison of white versus ethnic minority populations in the UK

Our data show for the first time that routine biochemistry at hospital presentation in COVID-19 differs between ethnic minority and white groups. Among the markers identified, CRP was significantly higher in the ethnic minority group pointing towards an increased tendency for severe inflammation in this group.
