Clonal haematopoiesis and COVID‐19: A possible deadly liaison

We provide evidence for a linear correlation between the frequency of clonal haematopoiesis and COVID‐19 mortality rate. We discuss the mechanistic explanations for this association mediated by a pathological inflammatory response. Our hypothesis can be tested in COVID‐19‐infected patients and event...
