To allow the human genetics community to share important outcomes of the genetic determinants of COVID-19 susceptibility and severity, the COVID-19 Host Genetics Initiative [33] was established in spring 2020 and the genetic association results of several gene clusters (such as TYK2, DPP9, and the OAS1/2/3) were publicly released in January 2021 [34]. This evidence concerns the gene OAS1 and COVID-19.
