Reports suggest that this cytokine storm, including IFNγ-induced protein-10 (IP10), macrophage chemoattractant protein1 (MCP1), IL-6, tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα), granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (GCSF), and macrophage inflammatory protein 1α (MIP1α), are associated with severe clinical outcomes in COVID-19 patients (Huang et al., 2020; Tay et al., 2020). This evidence concerns the gene CSF3 and COVID-19.
