Heat map of adjusted hazard ratios (aHR) of death comparing hospitalized COVID-19 patients with a single comorbid condition to patients free of comorbidity. Boxes with dashed frames indicate 95% credible intervals (CrI) excluding 1. White numbers correspond to ranks of the importance of comorbidities based on the aHR. Rank 1 corresponds to the comorbidity with the strongest association with mortality. Results from the model fitted to data from the second epidemic wave, including covariates sex, age, the different comorbidity types, and two-way interactions between comorbidity types, between age and comorbidity types, and between sex and comorbidity types
