A post-mortem examination of COVID-19 infected human lung tissues and an observational study were performed in order to evaluate whether expression of cell fitness marker hFwe-Lose in patient's nasopharyngeal swabs could predict hospitalization or death from COVID-19. In COVID-19 patients with acute lung injury, hFwe-Lose was highly expressed in the lower respiratory tract and was co-localised with areas of cell death. The hFwe-Lose expression in the patient's nasal swabs accurately predicted subsequent hospitalization or death due to COVID-19 infection. hFwe-Lose outperformed conventional inflammatory biomarkers and patient age and comorbidities in predicting hospitalization/death due to COVID-19 infection.
