This picture shows that older people are more likely to need hospitalisation. Once the authors adjust for age, the effect of number of children is not significant. Quite inappropriate that the main figure is the _unadjusted_ analysis. https://twitter.com/dr_michaelmarks/status/1310567170091474951

Also, showing survival curves without confidence intervals is misleading. Keen eye can immediately sense something is up by the coarseness of the yellow and green lines. See, e.g. below by @alehins .
