Association between HLA gene polymorphisms and mortality of COVID‐19: An in silico analysis

Abstract

This study suggests that individuals with HLA-A*11:01 or HLA-A*24:02 genotypes may generate efficiently T-cell-mediated antiviral responses to SARS-CoV-2 compared with HLA-A*02:01. The differences in HLA genotypes may potentially alter the course of the disease and its transmission.
