Peer Review of “Health Care System Overstretch and In-Hospital Mortality of Intubated Patients With COVID-19 in Greece From September 2020 to April 2022: Updated Retrospective Cohort Study”

Peer Review of “Health Care System Overstretch and In-Hospital Mortality of Intubated Patients With COVID-19 in Greece From September 2020 to April 2022: Updated Retrospective Cohort Study”

This is the peer-review report for “Health Care System Overstretch and In-Hospital Mortality of Intubated Patients With COVID-19 in Greece From September 2020 to April 2022: Updated Retrospective Cohort Study.” The topics of this paper [1] are interesting, though well known. The structure and content must be revised, and results have to be better explained by authors before being reconsidered for publication. Title has to be shorter.

Author’s Response to Peer Reviews of “Health Care System Overstretch and In-Hospital Mortality of Intubated Patients With COVID-19 in Greece From September 2020 to April 2022: Updated Retrospective Cohort Study”

Author’s Response to Peer Reviews of “Health Care System Overstretch and In-Hospital Mortality of Intubated Patients With COVID-19 in Greece From September 2020 to April 2022: Updated Retrospective Cohort Study”

This is the authors’ response to peer-review reports for “Health Care System Overstretch and In-Hospital Mortality of Intubated Patients With COVID-19 in Greece From September 2020 to April 2022: Updated Retrospective Cohort Study.” “We aimed to update this analysis [2] to include the large “Delta” and “Omicron” waves that affected Greece during 2021‐2022.” So why did you analyze data also from 2020?

Peer Review of “Health Care System Overstretch and In-Hospital Mortality of Intubated Patients With COVID-19 in Greece From September 2020 to April 2022: Updated Retrospective Cohort Study”

Peer Review of “Health Care System Overstretch and In-Hospital Mortality of Intubated Patients With COVID-19 in Greece From September 2020 to April 2022: Updated Retrospective Cohort Study”

This is the peer review report for “Health Care System Overstretch and In-Hospital Mortality of Intubated Patients With COVID-19 in Greece From September 2020 to April 2022: Updated Retrospective Cohort Study.” This paper [1] is interesting but needs improvement. We aimed to update this analysis to include the large “Delta” and “Omicron” waves that affected Greece during 2021‐2022 So why did you analyze data also from 2020? Vaccination did not affect the mortality of these already severely ill patients.

Health Care System Overstretch and In-Hospital Mortality of Intubated Patients With COVID-19 in Greece From September 2020 to April 2022: Updated Retrospective Cohort Study

Health Care System Overstretch and In-Hospital Mortality of Intubated Patients With COVID-19 in Greece From September 2020 to April 2022: Updated Retrospective Cohort Study

We previously showed how the mortality of intubated patients with COVID-19 in Greece is affected by regional disparities and patient load, even without exceeding capacity [3]; that analysis did not consider COVID-19 vaccination and only covered the period until May 2021, thereby missing the large Delta and Omicron variant pandemic waves that followed, which were accompanied by a large number of deaths.

Emotional Analysis of Twitter Posts During the First Phase of the COVID-19 Pandemic in Greece: Infoveillance Study

Emotional Analysis of Twitter Posts During the First Phase of the COVID-19 Pandemic in Greece: Infoveillance Study

The “Spanish flu” or influenza of the 1918 pandemic, wherein the fatality rate in Greece was as high as 0.33%, was the last time that the Greeks experienced societal isolation measures [9]. More recent epidemics such as those of SARS-Co V (2003), West Nile virus (2010-2011), or HIV (2011) did not really affect Greece, as in the first case, the virus did not prevail in the country; in the second, the incidence was extremely low; and in the third, it was limited to a specific population of drug users [10].

National Survey of Morbidity and Risk Factors (EMENO): Protocol for a Health Examination Survey Representative of the Adult Greek Population

National Survey of Morbidity and Risk Factors (EMENO): Protocol for a Health Examination Survey Representative of the Adult Greek Population

In Greece, according to data from the Hellenic Statistical Authority [11], 50% of persons aged 15 years and over suffer from a chronic disease (25.2% increase compared with 2009). The financial crisis and austerity policies implemented in Greece in 2009 have various detrimental consequences on Greeks’ daily lives as well as on their health [12], including increase in heart attacks (50.0%), strokes (23.5%), and depression (80.8%), related also to rise in unemployment [11,13].
