In Reply We thank Dr Silverman and colleagues for their interest in our study and providing us the opportunity to expand on our results. Among the 1916 patients who visited the emergency department or were hospitalized with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in our study, 8 patients (0.4% [95% CI, 0.2%-0.8%]) had hemorrhagic stroke, including 7 with intracerebral hemorrhage and 1 with subarachnoid hemorrhage. Among these 8 patients, 4 strokes were attributed to anticoagulant use.
