Genetics may play role in determining immunity to COVID-19: Computational studies suggest a set of genes that regulate immune response help determine robustness and durability of neutralizing antibodies to virus

Researchers report that individual immune response to SARS-CoV-2 may be limited by a set of variable genes that code for cell surface proteins essential for the adaptive immune system. The finding may help explain why COVID-19 immunity varies by individual.
