Positive with Covid? Which blood type passes it most easily

Positive with Covid? Which blood type passes it most easily

It has been said since the beginning of this pandemic that blood type has some significance in the probability of being infected with Covid-19, but this latest study shows how each blood type reacts to it.

Subjects with blood group 0 are thought to be more protected from the effects of the coronavirus, while those with group A were more likely to experience it in a more severe form.

The most recent study in chronological order comes from the American Society of Hematology, another from the University of Southern Denmark and another from the University of British Columbia. From all these studies it turns out that there are far fewer patients with blood type 0. There is a logical explanation for this. Scientists justify it with the presence of Isoagglutin in the blood, an antibody that prevents the virus from remaining in the body.

Then another study with 1,600 patients in Italy and Spain, found not only that blood type 0 experiences fewer symptoms, but also those with blood type A pass it more easily.
