Data from Emergency Rooms for patients evaluated but not admitted to departments were also collected.the data from hospital discharging were crossed for diagnosis with data from laboratory. The department were classified into 'low intensity' and 'middle/high intensity'. The comparison was according to the different periods of epidemic.patients admitted to the hospitals were 2,738: 510 died (17.3%) and 1,736 patients were evaluated in the Emergency Rooms but not admitted to departments.

N. 510 deaths by 2,738 (17.3%) were observed, with significant reduction in the second and third waves in the low intensity departments (from 21.9% to 14.3% and 12.7%) (p0.001), while mortality was substantially unchanged in the middle/high intensity departments (28.0%, 29.6%, and 28.3%). The mortality for patients with=65 years was 26.7%. Females showed lower mortality (OR 0.690; CI95% 0.560-0.840) and lower incidence of admissions in middle/high intensity departments (OR 0.556; CI95% 0.459-0.673) in the three waves. Finally, including also the patients not admitted, the general mortality was 15.1%.a worse outcome by mortality and severity of disease was observed for male gender compared to female and for older age classes.
