Abstract
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) which is caused by SARS-CoV-2 has infected more than 87 million around the globe as of January 2021. Since the emergence of the disease in 2019, it has caused the death of nearly 2 million individuals as reported by the World Health Organization [1,2]. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), deaths involving COVID-19 are highest among the elder population. Those of age >85% correspond to 30% (100,016/313,171) of COVID-19 related deaths in a week in the United States of America [3]. This group is followed by those aging 75-84 years (27%), 65-74 (21%), and 55-64 (12%) consecutively [3].
