The ground-breaking study, which was published online recently in the journal Genes and Immunity, found that populations that carry similar long DNA segments (homozygous) in their genome are most likely to be more susceptible to Covid-19.

In their latest study, researchers have showed that the genes associated with smell (olfactory) and taste (gustation) were suppressed, causing Covid positive patients to lose their senses of smell and taste.
