Abstract

Key questions: What immune pathways and cellular phenotypic states distinguish COVID-19 severity? How do immune cell populations in blood and lung relate in severe COVID-19? Aims: To uncover immune signatures underlying severe disease, revealing candidate immune pathways involved in pathogenesis, Identify candidate predictive biomarkers for larger scale studies, Rapidly provide robust in vivo evidence to guide therapeutic intervention
