The severity of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pneumonia, the course, fatality and mortality are multifactorial and attributable to the immediate parenchymal damage in the region of the lungs (including pulmonary vessels), pre-existing comorbidities, extrapulmonary complications, secondary infections and the quality of the available medical care. In this respect, coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is comparable with other severe community-acquired forms of pneumonia caused by conventional pathogens, even if the pathogenesis is different. The fatality of hospitalized COVID-19 patients is approximately 20% (and therefore higher than for other pneumonia pathogens), in intensive care patients 30–40% and in invasively ventilated patients ca. 50%. Risk factors that are decisive for the fatality are old age, overweight, male gender and typical age-related cardiopulmonary underlying diseases. The clinical risk estimation in hospital should essentially be carried out in accordance with the valid guidelines on pneumonia. The value of laboratory surrogate markers specific for COVID-19 for risk estimation and treatment optimization cannot yet be adequately assessed.
