TY - JOUR AU - Cocco, Giuseppe PY - 2020 DA - 2020/09/10 TI - Immune Senescence and Covid-19 Pandemic JO - OBM Geriatrics SP - 132 VL - 04 IS - 03 AB - Covid-19 pandemic has been infecting a substantial portion of the world population, thereby revealing quality deficits in health care in the majority of the countries around the globe. Severe illness and mortality from Covid-19 infection are present predominantly in minorities; especially they are more frequent in geriatric patients. Unfortunately, our knowledge is limited about what accounts for the variability in immune response from one person to another. This question is far from being merely academic, and finding its answer assumes critical importance for the future of global health.
