Different variants of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of angiotensinogen (AGT), angiotensin-converting enzyme type 1 (ACE1), and angiotensin II receptors type 1 (AGTR1) and 2 (AGTR2) genes determine different susceptibility to cardiovascular disease (CVD) and hypertension, which can be considered as risk factors for fatal outcomes among coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients. The objective of our study was to assess the relation between the frequency of SNPs of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) components, and the severity of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection.
