How quickly can you contract a virus: the answer is in your blood

Scientists connected a certain blood group with the probability of getting infected with various diseases

Which type of blood group are you?

Scientists released a study about the connection of a certain blood group with the probability of getting sick with various diseases. Thus, experts from all over the world gave another reason for each of us to find out and remember our own blood type.

A group of researchers from Denmark found that blood can be used to determine the chances of a person suffering deep vein thrombosis, as well as the formation of blood clots in the legs. Analysis of data collected over many years has shown that people with blood groups II, III or IV form blood clots 40% more often than those who carry group I blood. At the same time, scientists from Harvard University have already established that people with blood type IV have the highest risk of developing heart disease.

There is also a study by Swedish scientists from Karolinska Institute, who reported that their study showed that people with blood type II are more likely to develop stomach cancer (by about 20%) than everyone else.
