People with blood type O could have the lowest risk of getting the coronavirus (COVID-19), according to two studies published this week.


The study "Reduced prevalence of SARS-CoV-2 infection in ABO blood group O," published in Blood Advances, compared Danish health registry data from over 473,000 people tested for COVID-19 to data from a group of over 2.2 million people from the general Danish population. The comparison showed that fewer people with blood type O and more people with A, B, and AB blood types were COVID-19 positive. Results showed that there was no significant difference in the rate of infection between A, B, and AB types.
