We replicated with high confidence proteins encoded at ABO and OAS124,27,28, refined with robust confidence proteins encoded at loci near ELF5 and SFTPD15, and further provide suggestive evidence that proteins encoded at CSF3, HSP40, RAB2A, and NUDT5 might modulate SARS-CoV-2 susceptibility or the course of COVID-19 (Table 1). This evidence concerns the gene ABO and COVID-19.
