Could the D614G substitution in the SARS-CoV-2 spike (S) protein be associated with higher COVID-19 mortality?

International journal of infectious diseases : IJID : official publication of the International Society for Infectious Diseases - 1 Jul 2020

Abstract excerpt

The increasing number of deaths due to the COVID-19 pandemic has raised serious global concerns. Increased testing capacity and ample intensive care availability could explain lower mortality in some countries compared to others. Nevertheless, it is also plausible that the SARS-CoV-2 mutations giving rise to different phylogenetic clades are responsible for the apparent death rate disparities around the world....
