Sex Differences in Immunity to Viral Infections

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has increased awareness about sex-specific differences in immunity and outcomes following SARS-CoV-2 infection. Strong evidence of a male bias in COVID-19 disease severity is hypothesized to be mediated by sex differential ...
