Dr Spur’s mystery case : living with an antibody deficiency during the COVID-19 pandemic

Abstract

Thank you for your relevant questions at a time in which we are still battling the SARS-CoV-2 virus in the ever-evolving SARSCoV- 2 pandemic. As time passes, we continue to gain additional insights into how patients with antibody deficiencies and other inborn errors of immunity (IEI) are affected. Interestingly enough, we gain much insight into the immune responses crucial to the pathophysiology of COVID-19 disease by studying abnormalities in patients with IEI. This can guide scientists in developing treatment and help identify patients who may be at an increased risk for severe disease.
