SUMMARY - Emory and University of California San Francisco
researchers has released a study, published in "Science
Transitional Medicine," that reveals that an antibody in the
nasal passage predicts the severity of a patient's Covid
infection. The presence of the antibody, called anti-interferon
alpha, indicated the infection would likely be limited to mild
symptoms like coughing or sore throats. Those without the
antibodies in their nostrils often experienced shortness of
breath, indicative of a more severe case of Covid.
