The Role of Physical Activity in COVID-19 Mortality Rate: A Cross-Sectional Study.

Background: Recent evidence suggests a negative correlation between physical activity and the incidence and severity of noncommunicable chronic diseases like cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and respiratory infections. This study explores the potential influence of physical activity levels on the mortality rate and coronavirus disease (COVID-19) recovery.

Materials And Methods: This descriptive analytical cross-sectional study evaluated 175 Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR)-confirmed COVID-19 patients admitted to Baqiyatallah Hospital.
