Abstract

The COVID-ImmunoPhenotyping project (COVID-IP,London) uses flow cytometry analysis of blood cells and circulating immune markers to better understand how the immune system responds to COVID-19 infection and if immunophenotyping can provide diagnostic information about disease severity. The earliest results from this study imply prognostic value for immunophenotyping IP10 plasma and T cytopenia in coronavirus patients which may aid in identifying those at risk of developing more severe disease.
