Selective immunoglobulin A deficiency a risk factor for severe COVID-19

In a recent study published in The Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, researchers in New Zealand gathered evidence to show that selective immunoglobulin A deficiency (sIgAD) is an understated risk factor for severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).
