Article Synopsis
- Health organizations are struggling to control the spread of COVID-19, especially regarding high-risk individuals who may need hospitalization, making it crucial to identify key biomarkers related to severe illness.
- The COVID-19 Response Study intends to conduct a multiomics analysis using blood and saliva samples from 1,000 recovered individuals to uncover host susceptibility factors related to SARS-CoV-2 and severe COVID-19 outcomes.
- The study includes a cohort of 519 participants in Northern Ireland with confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infections, as well as a follow-up group to track symptoms and immune responses over the year post-infection, incorporating extensive data collection and analysis methods.
