Males are disproportionately affected by severe disease and death from severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection. In their recent article, Takahashi et al. found sex differences in immune responses to SARS-CoV-2 and the predictors of disease progression. These findings contribute to elucidating the mechanisms that underlie the male bias in severe disease and death from coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).

SARS-CoV-2 感染后的性别偏见免疫反应

男性因严重急性呼吸系统综合症冠状病毒 2 (SARS-CoV-2) 感染而受到严重疾病和死亡的影响尤为严重。在他们最近的文章中，Takahashi等人。发现对 SARS-CoV-2 的免疫反应和疾病进展的预测因素存在性别差异。这些发现有助于阐明导致男性在严重疾病和死于 2019 年冠状病毒病 (COVID-19) 中的偏见的机制。
