Title: Deadly COVID-19 Among the Elderly: Innate Immune Memory Helping those Most in Need
  • Cord-id: i24pclju

    Snippet: Age is a key risk factor associated with the severity of symptoms caused by SARS-Co-V2 and there is an urgent need to reduce COVID-19 morbidity and mortality in elderly individuals. We discuss evidence suggesting that trained immunity elicited by BCG vaccination may improve immune responses and can serve as a strategy to combat COVID-19 in this population.
