It's been over three years since the first known COVID-19 infection.
It's possible that it's not a mutation in one gene, but a combination of mutations in multiple genes, that render a small number of people immune to COVID-19. Targeting multiple genes without causing any unwanted side-effects can be tricky and would make it much harder to harness this knowledge for anti-COVID-19 drugs.
But understanding the genetic mutations that make someone resistant to COVID-19 could provide valuable insight into how SARS-CoV-2 infects people and causes disease. In other words, it may be interesting scientifically, but perhaps not clinically. While it will be some time before we have answers from these studies, scientists do believe there is a small group of people who areAs scientists, we can become fixated on certain details of our research. It's always important to remind ourselves that there are people on the other end of these infectious diseases.
Although SARS-CoV-2 continues to infect people across the world, and is constantly mutating and evolving into new variants, its severity has in general been greatly reduced thanks to effective vaccines., of which nearly one-fifth have symptoms so severe the condition significantly limits their day-to-day activities.microclots in the blood
and chronic inflammation, we don't really know why some people are affected and others are not. So perhaps our focus should shift from the genetic determinants of immunity to SARS-CoV-2 to exploring whether some people may have a genetic predisposition to a potentially life-altering chronic disease.
