A common <i>TMPRSS2</i> variant protects against severe COVID-19

2021-03-08

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> Infection with SARS-CoV-2 has a wide range of clinical presentations, from asymptomatic to life-threatening. Old age is the strongest factor associated with increased COVID19-related mortality, followed by sex and pre-existing conditions. The importance of genetic and immunological factors on COVID19 outcome is also starting to emerge, as demonstrated by population studies and the discovery of dam...
