Associations between blood type and COVID-19 infection, intubation, and death
Recent evidence has suggested that blood type may be associated with severe COVID-19. Here, the authors use data from ~14,000 individuals tested for SARS-CoV-2 at a New York City hospital, and find that certain ABO and Rh blood types are associated with infection, intubation, and death.
