(Cell Reports 37, 110020; November 16, 2021) In the version of this article that published with the November 16, 2021 issue, the members of The COVID-19 Host Genetics Initiative were not included as part of the secondary authors list and were only listed in a consortia section, preventing the members from being indexed with the paper on Scopus. Both author lists, primary and secondary, now appear correctly online. The authors regret the error and apologize for any confusion and inconvenience that this may have caused. SARS-CoV-2 susceptibility and COVID-19 disease severity are associated with genetic variants affecting gene expression in a variety of tissuesD’Antonio et al.Cell ReportsNovember 2, 2021In BriefD’Antonio et al. characterize associations between GWAS signals for COVID-19 disease and eQTLs in 69 human tissues to identify causal variants and their underlying molecular mechanisms. They show that diverse symptoms and disease severity of COVID-19 are associated with variants affecting gene expression in a wide variety of tissues. Full-Text PDF Open Access
