Reviewer 3 Report

The cross-sectional study reported active participants have a good prognosis for patients with COVID-19. Some points should be improved. 

line 137; please provides the definition of respiratory difficulties.

Regarding the table 1; please provides the cutpoint of overweight or obesity,  why did the authors make a cut point for hospitaization days at 0-5 days and 6 days or more, also the intubation days (i.e., 0-5 days vs. 6 days or more)

Table2; physical active people were not a significant difference in days of hospitalization  (P=.005). please check!

Study limitaion: line 301-314

One limitation is that the IPAQ which is a measurement of physical activity is a self reported questionnaires (even if the authors clamed that it is easy to use). It might be  a self-bias such as recall bias.
