A member asked:

Why do you think some covid patients go from mild to critical within hours?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Great question : We understand that the body has an immune response to the virus and everyone has a level baseline health. Let say you have obstructive lung disease- you would already have a poor breathing capacity, then a loss from the infection would cause more problems for you. If you were athletic and young you have more ability to fight the infection
