In support of this, the meta-analyses have revealed that the use of ACE inhibitors (that would decrease the angiotensin II level of the hypertension patients) might not increase the susceptibility of SARS-CoV-2 infection but the use of angiotensin receptor blockers (which would not decrease the angiotensin II level in hypertension patients) could augment the SARS-CoV-2 infection.59 This evidence concerns the gene AGT and hypertensive disorder.
