Tangirala et al. evaluate changes in the associations between various exposures and COVID-19 positivity and hospitalization across two non-consecutive waves of the pandemic in participants of the UK Biobank. They find that the strength of the association between certain risk factors, such as age and household-related factors, change over time.
