Interestingly, despite the small sample size, we observed a fully independent replication in chr3 locus near the LZTFL1 (rs71325088 COVID-19 fatal outcome analysis; OR = 3.03 (1.24–7.45), p-value = 0.015) and SLC6A20 genes (rs11385942 COVID-19 fatal outcome analysis; OR = 2.34 (1.03–5.35), p-value = 0.043). This evidence concerns the gene SLC6A20 and COVID-19.
