The relationship between blood type and coronavirus: are some people more prone to contagion? | Video | CNN

Science has not confirmed whether there is a relationship between blood type and the risk of complications from covid-19, but the genetic analysis company 23andMe assures that it is. A new study reinforces the idea that there is a relationship. In addition, according to the team's report on the MedRxiv site, Latinos and blacks have a higher rate of infection and a high risk of hospitalization. The study has not been published or reviewed by other experts, but in the CNN Digital Encounter, Guillermo Arduino interviews Dr. Carla Venegas Borsellino, a specialist in intensive care and neurologist at the Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville, Florida, on the subject.
