Introduction: The start of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, the incidence of various symptoms in individuals, and the similarity of some symptoms with other illnesses have made individuals with symptoms severely worried. Therefore, this study investigates the related symptoms and factors in carrier patients and patients with COVID-19.
Methods:. This research is a descriptive-analytic study. The data available in the hospital information system (HIS) of hospitals affiliated to Abadan University of Medical Sciences and Oil Company Hospital have been used to extract the primary data. Then, the data were analyzed, and their relationships were measured  (with descriptive statistics and inferential statistics) using the STATA14 software.
Results: The results of this study indicated that the number of carrier patients is higher in men than in women. Being in contact with infected individuals and foreigners increases the odds of infection by about 50%. On the other hand, aging is also a crucial factor in increasing the odds of infection by 11%. The number of carrier patients is also higher in spring and summer.
Conclusion: The results of this study indicated that, above all, the history of contact with patients and suspected individuals is mainly the predisposing factor for infection, and the history of traveling abroad, risk factors, being in crowded places, and even age, gender, and season can highly affect the rate of infection, severity of the disease, improvement, or aggravation of the patient status depending on the conditions.
