<![CDATA[Abstrak Coronavirus Disease 2019 (Covid-19) adalah penyakit infeksi yang disebabkan oleh Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2). Berdasarkan data dari Dinas Kesehatan Papua Barat per kasus konfirmasi covid-19 di Papua Barat masih terus mengalami penambahan setiap hari. Belum terdapat penelitian sebelumnya di Papua Barat terkait karakteristik pasien covid-19 dan hubungannya dengan tingkat keparahan. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui hubungan karakteristik pasien dengan tingkat keparahan covid-19. Penelitian ini dilakukan pada pasien yang terkonfirmasi covid-19 di Rumah Sakit Darurat Covid-19 Kota dan Kabupaten Sorong pada 99 responden dengan desain cross sectional study menggunakan data sekunder. Hasil yang didapatkan yaitu proporsi kelompok usia <55 (10-54 tahun) yaitu 74,7%, jenis kelamin perempuan (53,5%), dan suku non Papua (85,9%). Karakteristik klinis paling banyak dijumpai diantara ketiga gejala yang diteliti yaitu gejala batuk (49,5%), sesak napas (42,4%), dan demam (6,1%). Analisis hubungan jenis kelamin dengan tingkat keparahan didapatkan nilai p=0,242, hubungan kelompok umur dengan tingkat keparahan didapatkan nilai p<0,001, hubungan suku dengan tingkat keparahan (p=0,054), demam (p=0,193), batuk dan sesak (p<0,001). Terdapat hubungan yang bermakna secara statistik, yakni umur, gejala batuk dan sesak dengan tingkat keparahan covid-19, dan tidak terdapat hubungan yang bermakna secara statistik yakni jenis kelamin, suku dan gejala demam dengan tingkat keparahan covid-19.
