    Document: is the (which was not peer-reviewed) The copyright holder for this preprint (11). 173 Previous studies suggested that COVID-19 infection is more likely to affect older males with 174 comorbidities, and can result in fatal respiratory diseases such as acute respiratory disease 175 syndrome (10, 20). Interestingly, SARS and MERS also infected more males compared to females 176 (21, 22). Differences in the levels and type of circulating sex hormones in males and females might 177 influence the susceptibility of COVID-19 infection. Previous study showed that sex hormones 178 modulate the responses of adaptive and innate immunity (23). However, our findings showed that 179 gender was not a risk factor for mortality in COVID-19 patients.
