Polymorphisms of Fcγ receptors have been associated with variable responses to infections. We determined the association of functional polymorphisms rs1801274 in the FCGR2A and rs396991 in the FCGR3A with COVID-19 severity. This study involved 453 patients with severe COVID-19, in which the FCGR2A rs1801274 G-allele (131-Arg) was significantly associated with death (p = 0.02, OR = 1.47). This effect was independent of age and increased IL6 and D-Dimer levels. This study suggests that the FCGR2A ...[more]
