Infections of viral origin and Rh(D) negative blood

Due to the outbreak of COVID-19, new interest has come towards our now 5-year-old study showing what has been confirmed in many others: When it comes to infections of viral origin, Rh(D) negative individuals may actually do better than those who are Rh(D) positive. At least with some infections of viral origin. There are also others, such as Dengue fever, where Rh factor doesn’t appear to make an impact. We have been hearing much about health differences based on Rh factor in the past and usually Rh(D) negative individuals catch the short end of the stick. This is part of what makes our findings so surprising. When it comes to COVID-19, we do not have data showing Rh factor percentages among those who have been infected and/or those who have died. We have previously posted a study showing blood type O doing better against another coronavirus and a new study appears to suggest the same results with COVID-19, though it hasn’t been peer-reviewed. That study comes from China where less than 1% is Rh(D) negative. As soon as any study is released that includes important data on Rh factor, we will post it. Until then, everything is more or less just speculation. Below are a few studies related to infections of viral origin and Rh factor frequencies standing out in patients vs. the controls. Don’t assume resistance and/or immunity. Don’t stop doing what you can to prevent the disease from spreading. This post is for informational purposes only and not to be mistaken for medical advice.

Here is a quote from our study:

RhD negative subjects have increased the risk of developing of certain heart diseases, respiratory diseases and some immunity and autoimmunity related diseases, for example rheumatoid arthritis. The general pattern suggests that RhD negative subjects could have problems with autoimmunity, could be more resistant to infections of viral origin and could be less resistant to infections of bacterial origin.

Let’s look at some diseases of viral origin individually:

Chikungunya

Rh negatives resistant to chikungunya

Coronavirus

Do Rh(D) negative individuals carry resistance to the #coronavirus?

Ebola

Are rh negatives resistant to the Ebola virus?

Flu

2018 study indicates Rh(D) negative individuals less likely to get the flu

HIV

More studies showing Rh(D) negatives resistant to HIV/AIDS

The Plague

What is hereditary haemochromatosis (the “Celtic Curse”) ?
Resistance to the Black Death is being discussed in the article above.

    Hi Mike, I have Rh 0 Negative blood, how do I find out if I am Rh (D) or not? I have never had a fever, never thrown up and never had the flu. However, one of early bosses in the corporate world demanded that we all have the flu shot and I was the only one that got nauseous and lethargic, still no fever or throwing up. During that time, several people died after taking that particular flu shot. I have heard that they have improved the flu shots since that time. And I have avoided taking the flu shot after that incident. One of my customers died two years ago within 5 hours after taking a flu shot given to her by one of our local nurses at the physicians office and many others in our area had gotten the flu after they too the shot.
