In view of the influence of ABO blood group antigens on infectious diseases, we explore the effect of ABO blood types on SARS-COV-2 infection. In this report, demographic data of 80 COVID-19 patients and 26 SARS-COV-2 asymptomatic carriers were collected based on electronic medical records. The results indicated that the distribution of ABO blood group in the confirmed patients was significantly different from asymptomatic carriers; importantly, antigen A carrier have significantly higher risk of developing into severe or critically cases than other types. These data present further evidence for the association of the blood groups to susceptibility to SARS-COV-2 infection.
