最近刚发的欧州硏究,探讨血型基因对感染新冠病毒后出现呼吸衰竭的影响
Blood group type may affect susceptibility to COVID-19 respiratory failure
A group of over 120 researchers from various institutions across Europe has performed the first genome-wide association study to reveal host genetic factors that may contribute to respiratory failure in cases of coronavirus disease 209 (COVID-19).
……………
A lead SNP was also identified on chromosome 9 at the ABO blood group locus, and further analysis showed that A-positive participants were at a 45% increased for respiratory failure, while individuals with blood group O were at a 35% decreased risk for respiratory failure.
两个半月前,中国研究人员已经报导过临床观察。

研究认为,O型血对新冠肺炎相对不易感,风险较低;A型血对新冠肺炎相对易感,风险也较高。该研究论文《Relationship between the ABO Blood Group and the COVID-19 Susceptibility》于当地时间3月17日刊发在预印本平台medRxiv,尚未经同行评议。

研究者还发现,与非O型血型医院工作人员相比,O型血型医院工作人员被感染的机会更低。
美国纽约也有类似的临床观察

A more recent study, again preliminary, from New York Presbyterian Hospital COVID-19 patients found a similar association with blood types but with an added wrinkle.
The higher infection rates for A Types was only for A-positive. Similarly, the lower rates for O Types was for O-positive blood types.
三个大感染区均有相似的报告,可见血型与新冠病确实有关。
O型患病少,而且不易出现呼吸衰竭。
A型的要多加保重。
