The study, published Thursday, confirms or newly identifies 13 genes that appear to play a role in susceptibility to infection or that affect the severity of illness. In a larger dataset, which hasn t yet been published, the same researchers found 10 new locations in the human genome associated with infection or severe COVID-19. It is among the lingering mysteries of COVID-19: Why do some people catch it while others – sometimes even sleeping in the same bed – escape without symptoms? Some of the factors that explain these differences have long been clear: Older adults are more likely to fall seriously ill, particularly if they smoke, are obese or have diabetes. People never exposed to the coronavirus won t get sick, of course, and exposure to a high concentration poses a higher risk for infection.
