Abstract excerpt
Host genetic factors have been shown to play a role in SARs-CoV-2 infection in diverse populations. However, the genetic landscape differs among various ethnicities; therefore, we explored the host genetic factors associated with COVID-19 disease susceptivity and disease severity in a Thai population. We recruited and genotyped 212 unrelated COVID-19 Thai patients and 36 controls using AxiomTM Human Genotyping...
