Summary What is already known about this topic?Coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19)causes symptoms ranging from mild to severe.Indicators for identifying severe COVID-19 infection have not been well identified,especially for young patients.What is added by this report?Both neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio(NLR)[area under curve(AUC):0.80;the odds ratios(OR)and 95%confidence intervals(95%CI):1.30(1.13–1.50)]and platelet-lymphocyte ratio(PLR)[AUC:0.87;OR(95%CI):1.05(1.01–1.09)]were determined to be indicators for recognition of patients with severe COVID-19 in young patients less than age 40.What are the implications for public health practice?NLR and PLR are useful indicators for identifying patients with severe COVID-19,especially in young patients less than age 40.
