COVID-19 (hospitalized covid vs population)

CCR3 · rs34759782

What the study found

Who was studied 4,702 Admixed Latin American ancestry cases, 68,573 Admixed Latin American ancestry controls, European, African, East Asian, South Asian or Admixed American individuals (See The COVID-19 Host Genetics Initiative, v7 ALL B2).

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.167 higher (95% confidence interval 0.14-0.19); p = 1 × 10−38.

Where it sits Chromosome 3, band 3p21.31 — in an intron of CCR3.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of COVID-19 (hospitalized covid vs population) compared to the general population.
A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with COVID-19 (hospitalized covid vs population).
G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of COVID-19 (hospitalized covid vs population) — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs34759782

What is rs34759782?

rs34759782 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CCR3 gene. Published research associates it with covid-19 (hospitalized covid vs population). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs34759782 mean I will get this?

No. Common variants like this one move a probability slightly and, on their own, rarely decide anything about one person. Nothing on this page is a diagnosis, and health decisions should be made with a clinician who can see your whole picture.

Where does the information about rs34759782 come from?

GWAS Catalog, eLife 2024, PMID:39361370. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
