It was aimed to determine by investigating the blood type of patients whose one-step reverse transcription and real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) test were positive for SARS-CoV-2. ABO and Rh blood types of individuals whose RT-qPCR test was positive for SARS-CoV-2 were examined and an evaluation was made to identify whether there was a relationship between them or not. The blood type data of 44.928 SARS-CoV-2 positive RT-qPCR test results have been obtained. 17.656 (39.29%) were delta, 8048 (17.91%) were alpha, 800 (1.78%) were beta, and 3000 (6.67%) were omicrons while 15.424 (34.33%) SARS-CoV-2 positive mutation was found to be negative. Our study suggests that O and Rh (\u2212) blood types may provide protection against delta, AB and Rh (+) blood types may hinder omicron infection while A and Rh (+) blood types may be more vulnerable to alpha and delta while B and Rh (+) are more sensitive to beta mutation. The molecular mechanism underlying the relationship between blood types and SARS-CoV-2 infection needs further molecular studies and multi-centered studies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-wordpress aligncenter wp-block-embed is-type-wp-embed is-provider-rh-negative-blood-and-people\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"rdmSeE0xn9\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rhesusnegative.net\/staynegative\/o-and-rh-negative-blood-types-may-already-have-covid-19-antibodies\/\">O and Rh-negative blood types may already have COVID-19 antibodies<\/a><\/blockquote><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; clip: rect(1px, 1px, 1px, 1px);\" title=\"&#8220;O and Rh-negative blood types may already have COVID-19 antibodies&#8221; &#8212; The Rh Negative Blog\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rhesusnegative.net\/staynegative\/o-and-rh-negative-blood-types-may-already-have-covid-19-antibodies\/embed\/#?secret=vnNPqtDywT#?secret=rdmSeE0xn9\" data-secret=\"rdmSeE0xn9\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In our study, it was observed that type A blood has the most SARS-CoV-2 mutation positivity in the distribution of SARS-CoV-2 positive mutation rates according to blood types since it was the most common blood type in our country.

The positivity of the second common blood type in our country, O type, started to decrease as the L452 mutation became widespread. The SARS-CoV-2 positivity rate of Rh (D) (+) blood type increased in alpha mutation.
