Abstract
Chaolong Wang and colleagues report a large genome-wide association study for COVID-19 severity in Chinese individuals. By meta-analysis with European data, they identify 3 loci associated with severe disease that suggest key roles for the adaptive immune system and the ABO blood group system in development of severe COVID-19.
