Title: COVID-19 in twins: What can we learn from them Cord-id: cxk4iaar Document date: 2021_10_2
ID: cxk4iaar
Snippet: Investigations on the concordance in monozygotic (MZ) as compared to dizygotic (DZ) twins may reveal if there is a genetic component increasing the susceptibility or resistance against an infectious disease. Here, we compared the concordance rates of SARS-CoV-2 infection in MZ versus DZ young twins who shared the same bedrooms and were equally exposed to the virus. The concordance rate was higher in the MZ group supporting a complex multifactorial inheritance responsible for SARS-Cov-2 infection
